What Does Poetry Mean To You

THIRSTING FOR EXPRESSION ... Just there on blots of a pen wanting to break, to suck the marrow and dance the dance… the glint of words induces this hunger for expression, changing into glistened rays, feeding raw essence warmer than sockets of verse exploding, and more flights rise, passing beyond harp of stars releasing old logic..creating new thoughts… irises enter into an eternal flame so wild as poetry makes me thirsty with life's mysteries where an appetite can never ever be satisfied.
