A free pass in some workplaces although it is a work day,
radio stations deejays have a field day
And listeners delight in the prank.
It is also the beginning of National Poetry Month
And somewhere someone is writing yet another editorial
Declaring poetry is dead or why it matters.
More bothersome to me is why April?
When tradition holds the first day for fools.
A fool and is money may be easily parted
But are poets and their verse easily imparted
To the masses?
