Intensity of Being Gifted

The intensity of her minds wiring
into her writing leaves some people
feeling uncomfortable that the rug 
of shag comfort has been ripped apart
from underneath them and that was not her
intention, in mentioning that shes so gifted,
and prolific, that shes making it hard for them, 
too just drink inside the depths, of the carpet
fibers of her minds intelligence, weaving
creative ingeniously into the design of just being
who she really is, an ornamental carpet ,to display,
 on the floor of peoples discontented and
uncomfortable jealousy in their weaving of 
the fibers of the rumors of her being " Just Crazy".

Love the flow of this Holly. It has the feeling of a single expressive thought that has burst out of frustrated emotion.
