The Science Of Poetry.
There is no rhyme
or reason when
a poem is complete,
just that facade
of feelings splayed
on pages
of emptiness.
That warm fuzzy
joy of accomplishment
when one has accomplished
what they meant.
Each person reads
a poem differently,
some with
no rhythm at all,
some as if it were
a rap or chan tand
others just
diddy-bopping along.
No one else can feel
what you felt when you
read your own writings,
each person has their own
unique way of processing
thoughts that are spelled out
for them in poems...
but still we try to reach
the grumbling masses with
the essence of
hope and despair,
spelled out in
simple language.
Sometimes
we succeed
when others
take communion
with our work
and are baptized
in it's warmth...and wit.
