Poetry
Photobucket
          Tranquil, right?
    Isn't that what poetry is?
Photobucket
The poet's words are beautiful...
like the most beautiful
          art or sculpture



     Chipping away into
the human mind until
the beauty fastens itself
into our culture
Photobucket
But the poet's muse is often tortured
trying to get the words out
strangling within
bleeding



HEAR ME!
FREE ME!
SPEAK ME!
Photobucket
Until the muse within becomes
a warrioress whose pen
is a gleaming sharp
sword of truth


cutting deep, this Mistress
Photobucket
Poetry is an internal violence
a great inner destroying
capturing sacred truth
on the sharp edge
       
   of a blade
