Amazing
It’s something of a miracle, isn’t it,
how words are plastic magic and can fly,
given the proper propellant,
which in my opinion is “need,”
a compulsion to commit to paper
or to a listener’s ear
or a reader’s eye
the gist and heart
of that maelstrom
of syllables and sounds
screeching around
in some very needy cavern
buried deep in that mine
we call mind?
Amazing...
