Acknowledge Yourself, Poet
If you don’t appreciate you, then,
who will?
Waiting for the winds of approval,
like a worn out windmill.
We all know that lonely space,,,,
Oh, no not you, with that arrogant,
smug look on your face!
“See my trophies” well no,I actually
don’t!
As ephemeral as something that on
dead waters, floats.
Looking for approval is so useless,you
have to be the one who does it first.
If not, you’ll be lost in a heated desert,
and wii be doomed to forever, thirst.
Poets love their craft, and constantly write.
So many forms to try, before we bid this earth,
our final, poetic-good-bye!
May your poetry sparkle like those gorgeous
eyes.
When overflowing with truth, you have no need
The of a carnival disguise!
