Another day spent on the earth
waking in the sight of God
success ringing with the dawn
another chance to make the art
there is the thing that drives my craft
when I don’t write to vent
in the angst to purge a soul
and that’s to script in quest of love
this revelation is my calling
so I may feel the same within
passion shared to all beloveds
returned in equal is the hope
this dream begins with mere words
spun from thoughts I’d like to share
that others are not alone
in my mirror spun with poems
this achievement comes each day
art’s indulgence finding grace
in the realm beyond my walls
love expressed and then returned

The poem “Mirror Spun” was inspired by the quote, “I think a lot of art is trying to make someone love you”, by Keaton Henson. Poetry does have a side embracing narcissistic self-indulgence. Alternatively poetry is also expressed in an attempt to connect to like-minded people, and in this, share a measure of love.
