The Beauty of Writing

The beauty of writing is
not knowing which words will
stumble gracefully across the pages
which sounds thoughts ideas
will find themselves inscribed on paper
or palms where seven digits can 
connect two souls 'til they entwine
my inclination is calling writing a religion
preach that to congregations like
"and so it was written"
