Poem Title:
Poem
(my friends i wrote the piece below in one long exhale. i did not change a word but rather let it sit as it fell. could the writing be improved. yes it could but why try to create a masterpiece when finger painting is so much fun. you have greeted me with wide open arms. you have been a great support at a stressful time in my life. so here it is from my heart to yours.) they are those who ride us on their backs send us on journeys to places they built one chess piece at a time they put into words what we knew but could not say why am I telling you this there are wonderful poets here choose a dish visit their buffets taste more than one feel give it a whirl experience worlds you'll never find on a mac visit their vivid dreams drive one of their soap bubbles ski on the end of a needle and thread discover the barely open doors the naked flesh between the creases displays lined in scrap paper that one can absorb eyes closed crawl under and over the sea tunnel the milky way to a brand new galaxy witness a sky that like curtains part peak at what is on the other side life is short play nude spend a bitty bit of time with bitty bits of folksy folks on a striped colored blur they are special the poets who live here so do yourself a flavor put on your roller blades and go for the tricycle ride of your life here is the best part and get this (i hope your holding your breath and turning red white and blue) some of their poems rhyme some of them even use styles here comes the huge reveal ( unlike me who is not really a poet and doesn't actually know it) they use good grammar extensive vocabularies and here's the kicker capital letters and proper punctuation go figure which they also use well that figures there are great poets here you do yourself a disfavor if you're only here to write and not here to read
