"the world cannot destroy our love"
POETRY
IS OLDER THAN
LITERACY.
POETRY IS
A FORM OF LITERACY.
POETRY IS CONVERSATION.
POETRY CANNOT BE JUDGED.
SOME POETRY SHOULD BE RETIRED
SO THAT OTHER WORKS CAN RISE...
POETRY IS SILENCE
POETRY IS SONG
POETRY IS NATURE
POETRY IS HUMANITY'S FORM
POETRY IS LIFE
POETRY IS PEACE
POETRY SEEKS COMMUNICATION
POETRY IS COMMUNICATION
POETRY IS ART
POETRY IS DREAM SOUGHT REALIZATIONS OR
EARTH-BORN EPIPHANIES.
POETRY IS THE EPITOME
EQUATING ALL THAT CANNOT BE SAID
INTO WORDS THAT PAINT WORLDS
UNKNOWN INTO TANGIBLE PIECES
WHICH HELPS SOLVE THE HUMAN EQUATION
OR HELPS THROW OUT IMPASSIVE THEORIES
I AM POETRY; YOU ARE POETRY; WE ARE
POETS.

Where there is life,
all else follows.
Tree, river, continent
Road, letter, voice
animals such as elephants
people such as all of us
dolphins breaking from the ocean in a dive
towards heaven
music embody all, the sweet silent song
beauty is captured
released, moments are within and without time
our experience represents our lives.
water, rain, thunder, lightning, tempest
world, universe
everyone; all is passing and remains
our memory, the rain droplets, sun breaking
song spectrum and nuance
our eternal beings promise.
