One who accused Kuja of being long-winded or insincere would be within their rights and quite correct.

Kuja considers the question. "I have not written any verses since I've arrived. I may, but I do not currently feel inspired." All quite true, if framed by what some might consider to be a lie. Kuja believes it to be true; she is a poet. Not a conventional one, to be sure, but poetry takes many forms, and there is nothing Kuja likes better than a metaphor. Even a poet herself may be a metaphor. "No matter, as I am frequently given to long periods of contemplation."
