They say poets have imaginative super powers
I'd describe it as having super courage, to reopen our scars,
peeling back layer upon layer of carefully constructed skin,
woven with purpose to suppress our forbidden haunts,
into the hollows squashed between dissected organs and fractured bones.
Poetry, my soul bearer, life alterer, my reflection and my most favourite of gifts.
