A Piece of Me
Grab that pencil
No, not your right hand
Your left hand
"Write about poetry"
Well there's haiku and prose and rhythm and beats and theme and
Vocabulary isn't for me
I just write
Not about lights or kites or fights or dust mites or nights
I'm not much for rhyming
I just let my hand move
The intricate cursive that I practiced so much
Now flows naturally
The pen is my guide
I don't write for you or an audience of for anyone really
I write to write
Not this structure or that topic or something to speak to you
I just take a piece of me and put it into pencil lead marks
So let me give you
A piece of me
