USA Africa Dialogue Series - Monetized Muse(A Repost Dedicated To Poetry Prizes)

By Chidi Anthony Opara

The select scribblers

Summoned,

Stripped

And spread-eagled

In the mansion of mammon.

Their scrolls

Smell

The smell of monetized muse.

 

Tis the season of striptease,

Another season for select scribblers

To stripe for muse merchants.

 

The select scribblers

Emerged

From the mansion of mammon

Smelling

The smell of mercenary muse.
