To Live Without a Poem
To live without a poem
Is like life without form,
Poetry is my gene
Intoxicating me like gin,
When my mind becomes ballistic,
I pick up my pen to become realistic,
I will starve greatly if I don't write daily.
I wonder how some are fairing
When they live without daily writing,
Meditation and perpetual reading.
Poetry is a mirror
That exposes societal horror
To live without a poem
Is a life without form.
