The only way I can


Its the stuff that never sees the light,

that remains cold but still thrives, writhes and feeds off whatever it finds.

It's through askew and unused, improper and without constrained sets of words that

I tell you what it is that thrives, withes.

Through poetry I can tell you what I want in the only way I can, veiled and

hidden behind the curves and corners of every letter.
