I am the poet I have been whispering obscurities in dark corners for many years now And I like it that way I am dark and brooding Obscure and abstract And I like it that way I am the craftsman Allowing language to consume me And I like it that way I am impervious to permanence And tire of fence sitting And I like it that way I am living the rhythm of symbolism so as to Pawn it as wisdom And I like it that way I am the tactician step, step, stepping through Through the abstract and on to you And I like it that way Having found that symbolism rhythm I am weaning my way off words Having found my addiction And now feeling the friction My addiction isn’t to words though It’s to whispers Through the journey from abstraction And into the rhythm of this reality is Where I consumed all of it I even drank down the first person With a perspective shift and a lime twist for garnish Now it’s time to inspire Let's put on our costumes because Reconciling truths Aggravates liars And I like it that way
