THE POET BEING HIS OWN ANNOUNCER
“I AM IN A PLIGHT”
MY THOUGHTS AREN’T COMING RIGHT
I SEEMED TO HAVE LOSS INSPIRATION TO WRITE
ALL I NEED IS A GUIDING LIGHT
I SEEM TO BE IN DARKNESS
YET I AM THE ONLY WITNESS
WILL I EVER PUT MY POETRY WORDS TOGETHER?
IMMEDIATELY, I LOOKED UP TOO THE SKIES
I SAID AH, MY IDEAS OPENED UP AND I BECAME WISE
WORDS TOOK FLIGHT AND THAT’S WHEN I REALIZED
AFTER THAT, I FELT ENERGENIZED
A POET TRULY UNDERSTANDS BUT CAN ALSO ILLUSTRATE
BUT THE POETRY WORK BECOMES TO THE READER AS ADMINISTRATE
A POET COMES TO TERMS
THIS IS ONLY PHASE ONE
BUT WAIT, WE ARE NOT DONE
A STORM WITH RAIN AND THUNDER THAT RAGES ON THE OUTSIDES
YET INSIDE, IT IS THE WORDS OF THE AGES THAT RESIDES WITHIN
THIS IS HOW A POET BEGINS
THE POET’S MIND WITH ENDING ON WHEN
TO WRITE IS BECAUSE A POET CAN.
