Poenology, in Webster's wisdom
Unlike, as a corn kernel in a pea pod,
The failed attempts of a poetaster,
Rubs his shoulders,
Nonchalantly,
With poems and poesies.
The brash prose of legality
Slinking his misspelled way between
Siamese twins.
As though brother Daniel's profession
was somehow worthwhile.
If poetry is.

A couple Cliff notes for Jon's brilliant poem:
poenology: the study of prison managment
poetaster: a really lousy, pretentious jerk of a poet
Daniel Webster: orator, politcal dude, Whig, secretary of state for Harrison
Noah Webster: dictionary guy
true dat
