Katie B.

Poetic

The knowingness of being a poet liberates

Freedom from what binds

Grasping for the impeccable

Words that come in flashes and floods

Churning and burning

Nights of literary bliss

Confidence in the poet\'s pen

The more I write, the more I write

Poetry the kick stand 

That holds my bike upright

I dream in prose

I sing in verse

I write in a time set apart

Words revealed, ecstasy

Words flow, exhilaration

In the written word I am alive

Like the creatures of the forest

Moving my life around for poetry

Not an inconvenience

Because poetry is a passion, a priority

Poetry, always the main dish

At my literary meal
