The Sculptors Pen

The sculptor’s pen writes my pain
Etched words flow in my veins
I writhe inside- distorted  
I am controlled 
Not by what I want
But by a vision 
Perceived
Inside
The 
Sculptors
Mind
Upon the 
Floor
discarded
Scattered
Askew
His
Ideas
Control
What
I do

Hmmmm Lots of emotion here. "The sculptor's pen writes my pain." Guess it depends upon who the Sculptor is. I like to think the Sculptor is God slowly chipping away all the bad stuff to reveal the beauty inside. Nice piece here. Good imagery. God Bless, JB Nice to meet you Brenda. Please peek in again.

You Too Judy I am so thrilled to meet so many nice people here, blessings, Bren It is funny where these thoughts come from, on reflection, I think it is like a writer writes the characters in their novels or whatever and some land on the floor screwed up to be later rewrites : )
