Poetry can often gravely confuse,
When it's heavy and deep.
Filled with knowledge I cannot use.
A lot of us hide,
behind our own words.
Like poetry is a language
in a whole new world.
But I do not want to hide,
I shall not invert.
If I have something to say,
why hide it with fancy words?
True expression comes when people understand,
so those too-big words must lay out of my hands.
