Words

poetry

Before I die I hope to write words,
brilliant words, simple words
that move, elate, contort , extort heart,body and soul.
Cerebral, skin deep words, magical words,
ship-like carrying on into this metropolis, country, galaxy
like a new breath binding the soul to the crisp page.
blue effervescent words eliciting a bit of mirth and reverie.
trenchant, hip words, biting, slick words for the world to bleed or lick.
Then only then will I be able to justify my long existence
while he, she, sublime creature lived one minute and passed away the next.
