Copyright

I wish I could copyright my poems
yet I did not pay a dime for reading ancient legends'
Don't believe words could turn into coal or oil
millions years after
because life that could read these words
may not last that long
But metaphors are universal
millions would use one way or the other
whether I used them or not
So one could not possibly copyright the metaphors
any minor modification on the expression could easily dodge any infringement allegation
So I let the words become imprints of time and space traveled
any meaning or value more than words
lies in your imagination
copyright or not
