This Is That

Poetry 
                is a
                       process
some
say
           it
                    transports
                    me
forward
                from
                         over
                         there
in
yesterday
                via
                       these
                      words
today
           into
                       the 
unknown
tomorrow
is
            my
                     history
                     it is
me
        and
                   cannot
                   be
changed
by
          words
                      no
                      matter
how
eloquent
                 it
                     existed
happened
                it
                    cannot be
                    erased
I
            am
                       it
                       it
is
me
