Reflections

(A lone voice whispers)

Are you like me when selecting poetry or books to read

As they come up on your timeline or newsfeed 

For I've met some interesting people in my long life

And the most interesting ones I enjoy reading on any given night

Are those courageous ones who use the sharp knife of experience 

To write

To let go of whatever they need to purge using fonts as a testimony

In their own personal magical Fire Ceremony
