Change of perspective

My previous mindset changed.

I became accustomed to my distaste towards literature.

I preferred the picture.

Now I can't seem to detach from the mixture.

The words, the letters, the beauty in the composition.

It can cause a consumable collision.

Like a doctor making an incision,

Literature with quite precision breaks divisions.

It changes visions.

Brings forward new expeditions.

It is an exhibition.

An expression of someone's condition.

Writing is essential in this world full of barriers and partition.
