I am a poet;
that is to say
I am an artist;
that is to say
I can create any color
with only black ink;
that is to say
I/'/m different in how I think;
that is to say
my heart is my mind;
that is to say
my logic controls me,
for better or worse;
that is to say
it/'/s often a curse.
I take all my follies
and write them in verse.
I open the cage to my pain
and free it.
I choose words carefully
to make you feel it,
and see it.
That is to say
I sculpt it from raw;
that is to say
I am an artist;
that is to say
I am a poet.
