No Poems, Please

I found a note
stuck to my keyboard this morning.
Hastily written
in a desperate hand
on a tattered Post-It
it read,
“PLEASE!
No poems today from part-time poets.
(THIS MEANS YOU)
Muses needed elsewhere.
Global poetry crisis reaching academic proportions.”
As an afterthought,
almost illegible:
“Sorry for any inconvenience.”
