    Poem Commentary

    After someone read "Promiscuous"(http://www.originalpoetry.com/quotpromiscuousquot)(<----in case you don't know what I am talking about)...I was told I had a writer's soul. So that gave me the idea to write this one. So no I am not tooting any horns here...there was just inspiration from a comment someone made.

    "An UpWrite Soul"

    An UpWrite Soul(read the note)

    The pinnacle of my pencil flow…
    Or penmanship…rolls through every ventricle 
    Forming kindred spirits and kinships in a simplistic mold 
    A light shines that’s shone but is it an intrinsic glow?

    Or something that I’ve built upon just to make it show?

    My tune exposed used to be mental though…
    Until I decided to write it as something physical
    My drum beat is heartfelt but my instruments don’t blow…
    Unless you count the pen I hold after it explodes…

    And brings out what I’ve hidden inside for far too long…

    …I’ve been told I’ve got a writer’s soul…

    So when I dream again, I’m anxious to meet with him…
    Stowing away on his journeys, grateful he could sneak me in
    Then I speak again about his leaping pen, he leaves it then…
    For me…so I can go back and give you a chance to speak with him…

    So when I say I’m soul searching, I just mean I seek a friend…

    And when I’m puzzled about a piece again…I ask how he’d transcend 
    He says, “It’s easy to make amends with the scroll than to scrape and bend…
    But the masses may appreciate more your efforts in taking them…
    To the far reaches of the cerebellum and places they’ve never been…”

    So I pledge to him we are never “fin”
    until it’s just…

    The end.

    So fluid. The rhyme came together naturally, as if you were speaking and it just happened to rhyme. Skill. Sounds like a good way to express oneself, in ways that normal means can't. Your rhyme is inspirational, as is the piece. Its like a 2 in 1. Smoothly written.

    Thanks deep. I am glad you liked it and were inspired...thanks again for reading and feeding.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
