Poem: "The Bard's Magic Arrow"

[ysabetwordsmith]

Here is today's freebie poem for the fishbowl in general.  It was inspired by a prompt from valdary.  I picked up the term panjandrum long ago, from a weird-word dictionary titled The Grand Panjandrum.

The Bard's Magic Arrow

It is a law of nature
as valid as gravity:
pomposity demands
the prick of laughter.

The panjandrum
attracts satirists
the way a target
wants darts.
