Michael Kean Poet Rhyme

Between Extremes

I live inside the space between extremes
Stories bursting at the seams
Everything comes to me in dreams
Consciousness flowing like streams
Writing lives within extremes
Voices clawing through their screams
Like walking narrow balance beams
Hoping someone catches the themes

I don't recall reading you before but my recaller is not 100%. This is very good. You would like my poem 'edge of me', dated 3-16-2025. CayCay Michael Kean January 21, 2026 at 3:24 PM Thank you so much for your kind words. I honestly spent most of my life believing I couldn't write. Just always had creative ideas in my head. Hopefully, I can revisit some of the earlier ideas. I will definitely give your poem a read.
