My Secret Weapon

Yes, it’s a secret but I will still share it with you

I am not a soldier or a criminal
I am just a writer
who fancies poems and
struggles with a syllable.

But don't take me lightly
or ignore my presence.
I can change this world
without leaving evidence.

Give me a pen and a paper and
I’ll show where my strength lies.
You can watch me single-handedly
extract a cloud from the skies.
