The Written Word


Inspiration, for me

comes from the ink carved squiggles

of the written word.

Never before has anything

been more beautiful 

then the human experience 

seen from the heart 

of one of our own.

 

Ink has no judgment,

it sees no race or gender, 

it is a gorgeous neutral third party.

Literacy, time, and knowledge

is our only boundry 

and they are challenges

I am willing to spend

my lifetime 

to over come. 

 

Words exceed the boundries 

of vision and sound 

and release the minds eye

to see worlds you never knew 

could exist.
