she said i'm a bitch
he said i'm a bard
its a fucked up fairy tale
that might get you hard
what's with all the metaphorical indiscretions she chided
i don't know he quipped
but metaphors dearie
gets me excited
what do they mean
who the hell knows
you can write them forever
and cant afford clothes
a poem a day
sometimes two
i can't buy a house
or even a shoe
what's for dinner
a big words stew
its a low calorie meal
it will have to do
whats in it she said
some nouns and some verbs
could use some lettuce
and maybe some herbs
what the hell
go get a job
i would of course
but i am a slob
besides i could never write
in a complete line
with proper punctuations
like Gertrude Stein

I wonder if "Bitch and Bard"
I wonder if "Bitch and Bard" for the title is better.
I am not sure. By omitting articles you turn a subject into idea.
Hard and Bard seems there for a rhyme.
But it maybe just my opinion.
"You can read them forever ...."
Do you mean "you can write them forever"
Your protagonists are arguing. They are relatively civil. Where is your insanity? House and shoe reference to nursery rhymes is it intentional?
What was your goal including it?
The cadance is chopped and feels appropriate for the topic.
I like your "word stew" metaphor.
With your permission,
I would start the poem with her bitching and make the whole thing a dialogue or her words and Bard's thoughts
For example,
Missleading promises, cheap coffee.
Words stew for dinner.
I am bored of your metaphorical crap.
Meaningless poet! So called Bard.
O, God, where is my slender girl?
Her shy smiles are gone.
Should I really stop writing? get a job,
frame the yelling blob in splendor
she is asking for? That was his thoughts.
But he answered, "Yes, darling."
haahaahaa
All good suggestions!
As for the title you have a point but The Bitch and Bard ...Paired down to Hard I think
I liked your suggestion going from read to write and made the change... very good and thank you much ;)
With regard to your below comments you have my permission to do the rewrite and we will call it a collaboration if you like
Missleading promises, cheap coffee.

The Artist, for the most part a lion only in the house of dreams

No I have not lived but I
No I have not lived but I have observed some of it, yes. Thanks for the laugh. That is what I was hoping for.
Thank God, Its Amedeo
Thank God, Its Amedeo Modigliani mid 1800s burning his paintings and furniture for heat in the dead of winter

good example, i'd place him into the beginning of 1900, he is one of the symbols of twenty century dawn decadence, mmm my favorite time
