Not Another Rhyme

Not another rhyme 
Not another sequence of words telling the experiences of time
Perfected, aligned all seemingly sublime 

Let’s get real
Let’s leave our feelings raw and not conceal 
It’s our super power to weaponise the pen
To weave lyrical magic because it runs through our veins 
Not another rhyme 
This time
