Do I Have What It Takes

Is it really a skill that I have in my possession Or is it just an obsession, not even worth a mention Can everyone do what I do Or is it as easy as accessing the loo Can words be manipulated, manifested into something sweet by just any person you can find on the street Do I hold the talent to find the balance between fiction and reality Can I paint a picture, create a duality Can I compare and contrast, correctly using like or as Have I acquired enough vocabulary to become a visionary My wish is that my pen is never stationary, always flowing, forming letters, into words, into sentences I hope I never have to feel a repentance for the work I put out But let's not have any doubt I know I can be a great poet, I just have to show it

All can write poetry but to master the nuances is not in the scope of all poets.
