Are you: A.
A rhymer
A gatekeeper to old or new emotional sensations
Demanding a freedom
To live in a new format
For real eyes to read
From the human nation
Or are you: B.
A young or old timer
Like a goldminer
From 1827
At Coker Creek
In the high country of Monroe County
Tennessee
Searching for the right lines
Like pure gold
To express and extinguish a cold uncontrollable fire
To turn your soul into one of Poetry's
Many soldiers who love all nighters
Going to war everyday
Against tones and metaphors
Juxtapositions or cold terror
Or are you: C.
Just another lone driver
Stuck on the highways of dreams
With a blown tire
Searching for someone new
To become real fighters Together
To also love Poetry's all nighters
With a mirror image to hold tighter and to help make the load
Lighter
Or are are you just a mixture of the three?
A represents the need to just write poetry for pleasure.
B represents the need to just write poetry for catharsis
C represents the need to just write poetry while seeking solace in someone special
Who shares the same bliss
(C)
