Semantics

What is poetry?

Some words

A medium

Music without song.

An army of ideas in my head

Choice noise

Option overwhelm.

My place to be real with myself.

Because no one cares.

I have finally arrived

All these years pushing

and I am finally alone

Ever an outsider.

So I whisper to Prose through my phone,

Admissions, confessions, regrets....

Because these are not things that people want to hear.

Poetry.... heartsong.

Poetry... evidence of emotion

Poetry... fate in form

Poetry is magic.

Spell(ing) out our truth.

Words are a chance to see.
