just great...

just about great

poets must compose
so that many continue to search
the heart of the creator at that moment
I step into the soul of my subject
to imagine how I'd feel
had I been the one in that situation
none-the less,
each one must have one’s own fibre
to brave the knife
the sword,
the curse
the slicing tongue
how can I ever be all in one
so my feelings are the outcome
of one’s peculiar situation
as at that moment

This has a surrealist leaning and is rather fascinating
with its cursive run down the page, tumbling words out
like the splashes from a romping stream through the rocks.
It can be read with so many different meanings.

so many times
you have encouraged me
and ma'am too

so now I think
someday,
one day
I will also become like a poet like both of you
god willing Neopoets continue to read me
and help support a weakling
whose poetic sense
is just an imaginary inkling
