His work exuded sophistication;
That clever poet.
There'd be endless layers of complication.
You'd name a technique and he would show it;
He displayed such knowledge; erudition;
The perfect rhyme he would always retrieve.
So powerful an intellect on display.
Well chosen words; he was quite a magician.
Such a vocabulary; hard to believe.
It's just such a pity he'd nothing to say.
