Somewhere Far Away
Somewhere far away
someone is reading what
you've published
Everyone of you out there
has been exposed
Lights continue to shine on
in the distance
Both in the city
and in your mind
Somewhere far away
someone is reading
what you've published
That person might be a
lawyer, doctor ,dock worker, homeless person
or an aesthete
Just keep reminding yourself
everyday that you have talent
Ignore the critics
for they are not creators
of original work
As I sit here in the asphalt homeland
I feel the night wrap itself around me
like a crystalline blanket
Verse is an excellent friend
(at times)
