Only a Poet
Only a Poet…
can change feelings into air,
begetting a new feeling
Only a Poet…
can transform thoughts into verse,
birthing a new thought
Only a Poet…
can define the indefinable,
words meaning more than their letters allow
And only a Poet can stab time in the heart,
to bleed free and eternal,
—only a Poet
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2017)
