Noun
It will be, without a figment of doubt,
an utter disgrace
If what you mean to me, in words,
I try to trace
And yet words; for these are words indeed,
have been put down
Help me; for I know not what to say, or how,
help me invent a noun

nice poem that undercuts its own writing!

Neat! You brilliantly saved it from becoming cliched. Nicely put.

Well written. I liked the use of the word noun to write a poem around.
