Zero Pay

He caught a silly thought a day.

And put it into rhyme.

It showered him with zero pay

And took up all his time.

Fans tapped upon his window,

And scratched upon the door.

A ditty penned

Could start a trend

And bring them back for more.

And thus he ditty waffled

A man of flighty whims.

It’s official

That his piffle 

Is just rhymes and synonyms.
