Interesting, that I’m finally beginning to see things
Over a decade without even as much as being able to go on a wing and a prayer
And now, please God, if I can keep it on track, before too long I will get to be called a true wordsmith, quoted forever as being one such linguistic player
Word of mouth a most wonderful thing, heck, a journeyed band may one day even decide to sing about me
What I wanted, right? Most definitely, for people – strangers – to place aside their differences, at least for a bit, come at me, obviously pleased to meet ‘the poet’
A dream like no other, something that will always stick, more often than not it having gripped, smothered me
Wouldn’t have it any other way, I’m giving none of it back, get met with any such sliver of regret and I simply place it it in my next poem
