Poets That We Are

Poets That We Are… Poets are umbilical cords— chosen links of the pregnant mind and its births—amniotic guardians of the poetic descendent. As mere servants of the word, we cannot be more of an apostle than that of: Humble. Let us who write, worthily walk in our own integrity; man judges—The Most High chooses. We’ve been blessed with the creativity of the griots and muses of our own reality. No longer must we let ourselves be led astray; rather, let us forever write truth each blessed day. When the keyboard, cobwebbed in silence, ceases to ink, let not stillness miscarriage the word; and may our creativity become like Lazarus.
