You tell me…
the structure gives strength to your writing
I tell you…
it’s nothing but crutches in waiting
You tell me…
the order brings beginning and end
I tell you…
the sequence does feign and pretend
You tell me…
the form—the most important of things
I tell you…
the message is on Seraphim’s wings
You show me…
the prison you’ve build with your pen
I show you…
a cartridge empty—no ink from within
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2016)
