ink spots
I’m lost, liv’in in a haze, try’ in to find my wayusing these ink spots on my page. Amazed at the
lyrical lengths I’ve gone to fuel my delusions of eloquence.
Aligning lines of artistic alliterations. The rhythmic
styling and compiling of my poetic endeavors, my lyrical
treasures for my listening pleasure. Precisely placed phonic pearls
in a pattern to produce poetic paragraphs, lyrical photographs.
Cuz they say a picture is worth a thousand words,
but I would never want my words to be contained
by even the most extravagant of picture frames.
They couldn’t contain my rhyme schemes,
my poetic mind schemes and devises an escape route.
We’ll fill the space with words and thought, it’ll
burst at the seams, we’ll overflow into existence. It’s
futile to resist this, I’m overpowered by words. They
surround and hound me to be liberated lyrically. Their
excited to be recited poetically, connected, linked in this
microphone melody. It’s an extraordinary remedy
to extremity the inexplicable expression exports that exploit
my interior, to corrupt the exterior, and minimize this feeling
that I’m inferior. But lately it hasn’t worked.
I’m lost, try’ in to find my way, but
these ink spots on my page,
keep getting in the way.
