Plagarism???

By gigantopithecusragno

2B or not 2B,
This Englishman wrote well,
His words/ideas are stolen,
More times than we can tell,

Three writers hold my pen,
My lizard[unconcious], me, Another,
Sometimes what I write,
Was written by some other,

IF I have neglected,
To name a certain source,
Write it in your comments,
There is no remorse[no harm, no foul],

IF I make a point,
That plants in you a tree,
I freely give the sapling,
My gift from nursery,

I write to chase my demons,
I write to make things better,
IF I give you a seed,
Write from that a letter,

Cast your bread upon the sea,
Another will return,
I invest my blood,
For gold I do not yearn,

IF my prose a child,
Married to your son[hypothetically],
A new creation born,
A brand-new thought begun,

How can I pay my lizard?,
How can I pay the Other?,
He decides my wages,
In Mercy; I ask; smother...

    As it happens, when we had down time in the Military/Naval Shipyard, I would read a dictionary to pass the time... It kept me awake and on "standby" for when the other crew was finished and we could start...\___@___^___@___/...

    This is fantastic, your vocabulary and mannerism is something to hold dear in a world of jargon ridden gibberish. Mimesis, is the crux of good artists, indignant petty economy is the death of the rest. Welcome :)
