Creativity


I always need to be,

able to use my creativity.

 

To be able to paint

is to break a constraint,

of societal construction.

 

To take a picture

is a writing of scripture,

with images of importance.

 

To write a poem

is to never be lonesome,

as those words will follow you wherever.

 

To craft a movie

is to give a little beauty

to whoever will watch it.

 

I always need to be

able to use my creativity,

weather alone, or in public,

when I feel like saying fuck it,

or when someone I know kicks the bucket,

 

Because when I create,

weather on a desert island, or the Scottish highland,

in the sea, or the infamous death valley,

the only way for me to be

is living in my creativity.
