Whispers of a Voice

i am a poet

dont tell me what kind of poet to be

dont define me

dont box me

you bastard

you fing son of a b&^ch

i am a poet

im not sure how good I am

I try not to think of it

I just try to f&cking write

something good is coming of this

it ebbs and flows

sooner or later I find the truth and it comes out

the inner self

cut down by the violent smash of a car

whispers here and there

of a voice of the ages

whispers

O I wish that humanity 

could help me develop these whispers

into a voice

of the ages.
