[bodytext] => You say you're a new breed
driven on love not greed
searching for a new age
where people read your page
and gasp in emotion
at your love and devotion
these feelings you have must be real
that is, if you say, you can feel
real love real pain
it would be a shame
If the heart that you hold is possesed.

Great poem
When people write a poem it doesn't have to be about what they feel always I could write a love poem and not be in love. It just sounds better usually when the writer has experienced what their writing.
anyway great poem and welcome to the site
hope to read more soon

hey...! this is an interesting way to start.a poem about poets :) .sometimes its difficult to figure out if the rhymes stemmed from the poet's own experience...I take poetry to be reality + flight of fantasy :) you have a good , strong expression ...the poem leaves an impact..have a good time writing here ...and take care ...

An interesting take. Possession can take many forms though it is hard
to know exactly what occupies the poet's heart and just how that happens.

This made me think of artists who "sell out", right from the title on down-
when greed and popularity becomes more important than artistry and passion.
Such a shame really ...

A very thought provoking piece.

It IS a shame when that heart is possessed. But what a fantastic write. You make some very good points....and a lesson to be learned.

Be well, and welcome,
