Poetry that pulls ... Me to the soils of the earth Awakening my soul Giving life, giving birth Poetry you feel... I can't see it, but it's real An invisible emotional force Raw and filled with discourse A core of deadly silence That holds.. Holds forever.. To my heartstrings To my violence Forced to observe .. Never to surrender.. The center of the poet's being Filled with fire, magma, depth and gleam A depth that no other force can deter It grips, aches, symbolizes ...stirs We know it is there We know it is true The core inside the core Is the core inside of you Poetry that holds vast ... Shapes our futures, shapes our pasts ... This is the strength of verse To engage, to immerse In such a way that reality crumbles... Thus it keeps us rare, keeps us humble Providing sanity... ..truth? This is the prevailing darkness, the revelations, the reproof. Pull me to myself. Keep me close to my identity. Don't let me slip away . . . . . .
