A poetic apology

Guru Nanak Prophet and poet

What is the difference between a poet and a prophet

If you ask a wise man he might say

Poets have special powers of imagination and expression

Prophets utter divinely inspired revelations

Poets might give you this kind of answer 

Prophets minus phrs equals poet

Phrs is the Icelandic word for fart

So if you fart on a Icelandic poet he becomes a prophet

When a prophet makes a prediction

You may be inclined to take it seriously

The predictions of a poet however

Are nothing more than pure fantasy

Those of you who already googled the word phrs are probably feeling deflated

I am sorry if my poetry is not prophetic enough for you

I truly have no credentials to make divine revelations

Have a very poetic day
