The Bare Minimum

There's an inherent 
Irony inside poetry 
For the Poet believes 
The words are writing 
Something so important 
Enough to not only 
Think, but to read 
Again - and to publish 
Means enough to share 
Yet - still - knowing 
No matter how profound 
That you may think that 
Your words may be - not 
Even you would read more 
Than the bare minimum
