Oh Poetry


                    Poetry

                  a blessing

            that approaches us

        as a beautiful creature

       that can not be contained

   though a single word can cause

     an individual to be enraged

           oh what a blessing

                  it must be

                     to be

                    Poetry 

               is shapeless

           like an hourglass 

     with no more similarities 

   they could not touch hands

  for poems are to heal minds

the other is to break apart bands

how lessons have been taught here

        what it must be like

        oh to be shapeless 

              it must be 

               just me
