Words

The rich traditional dance

passed down generation to generation

a dance of the tongue

 

Words

the foundation

each letter a grain of sand

compiling to form millions

to build the whole universe

 

Words

the heartbeat

the tender flesh

the hourglass figure

of my poetry

 

Words

I write to exhilarate my passions

to embody that frenzy of energy

to breathe life of the beauty that captivates my conscious

 

Words

The camera

that snaps the picture

no one can see

an emotion

 

Words

the reason i can write

the power of me

the expression on the face of my soul
