I am so young Yet so strong Strongly salty Like the seawater Strongly lazy Like the wind I am dull As a knife I don't have worth Even pen can stab but I cannot I am the seawater; I am the wind I don't need to explain my worth to you Every morning I wake up with poetry On the tip of my tongue On every clip of my nail My fallen hair The dead cells on my bed My greasy face I open my eyes with poetry This heart beats in poetry These erythrocytes carry poetry I breathe poetry I live in poetry I do not need words Not all poetries are words And that's enough

They Say Poets Are Lazy But I Am Not A Poet; I Am Poetry
I am so young Yet so strong Strongly salty Like the seawater Strongly lazy Like the wind I am dull As a knife I don't have worth Even pen can stab but I cannot I am the seawater; I am the wind I don't need to explain my worth to you Every morning I wake up with poetry On the tip of my tongue On every clip of my nail My fallen hair The dead cells on my bed My greasy face I open my eyes with poetry This heart beats in poetry These erythrocytes carry poetry I breathe poetry I live in poetry I do not need words Not all poetries are words And that's enough
