Great Poet

The poet will be great when:
Knowing how to walk the razor's edge
taste the road dust
step on the scalding sand of the desert,
roam the solitude of the universe,
feel the heat of the volcano,
to lack strength,
have fainting thoughts,
get whirlwind of thoughts,
feel the despair of lack
in the midst of everything,
to know the muteness of the cold,
and the nakedness of abandonment,
to have the blood of the bleeding heart,
the cessation of words,
the verbiage of emptiness,
the taste of bitterness
and the taste of wine,
the glory of victory.
the reverse of loss,
the contempt of disaffection
the pleasure of enjoying love
lucky to be alive!
live through it all
surviving on poetry
being such a poet!
