All That's Left Is To Write

The words I write represent a brief vacation To a place of solitude and sublimation They help me recycle the trash that I find And leap from the compost heap that is my mind They help me excise and examine And to enjoy both feast and famine These words act as both hammer and nail Blind man's Braille and believer's Holy Grail Lastly, these words provide me with peace In this rented body and this world that we lease
