What is a pote? Read below!

Confessions of a Pote

Unexpected words
arrived. They were
refugees

from somewhere else.
Come in, I said, Enjoy
my hospitality.

So they crowded in
becoming instant friends.
It took

no time before they
had arranged themselves
inside my writing book.

I call my new friends pomes, 
myself, a pote. 
Before you know it

they might transform
themselves into poems.
Then I will be a poet.
