The Bottle of Ink

It sits in the place 

Where my water should go 

-Am I really that smart? 

For it just doesn't show- 

As quite a few times I've attempted to drink

-Strange as it might be- 

My bottle of ink! 

It sits there in silence 

With its bluish-black hue 

As I set good examples 

For what not to do. 

For it's not quite so good

-As some person might think- 

To drink in entirety A bottle of ink.
