The fact we all know

Everybody knows it,
But few remember it.

How much you help them admit
The power of the clarinet

In sweeping away the puppet
And listening again to the prophet,

Who can afford us the outfit
To toil, successfully to quit

Living shamefully as a marionette,
And appear again above the summit.

    Really nice poem! I like how smoothly it flows. The second stanza is a little confusing to me but stanzas 3-5 are thought-provoking.
