I Believe in Poetry
I believe in poetry I want to be on an island and be compelled to write itto simply have to write what I feel andwhat I see!I want to be on an island where the sea is everything our passageour foodour soulour inspiration ...and possibly our distructionI want to chase seagulls along the beach it formedsplash in its shallows feel it's cold against my skinbreath it infeel it I my soul...and then writewrite poetrywrite poetry because of it!The sea is all around usit is everything it is who I am it made usthere are words that haven't yet been put together in a poemI have words in my soul that will fit togetherI want to banish all and be a prisoner to iton an islandon an island with the sea to handwith a fire and warm clotheswith a stocked up larderand to close the door on a world that doesn't understand on an island surrounded by a sea that doeslooking within myselfand staring into the jaws of my own death that is the seato feel the wind and spray on my faceto write about what I feelto express my soul on an islandto write poetryand to explore ...and to share All that I feel - in poetry
