For This I Write

I write not for consensus sake Why should I? People don’t partake In my insights, designs and schemes Nor inhabit my nightly dreams. I write because it’s a passion My own particular fashion. Whether those enjoy what I write Or find fault with it, that’s alright! The satisfaction I receive Is from the notions I conceive Expressed in rhythmic poesy. This from me is a guarantee: When inspiration finds me home I am sure to write a poem.
