I Need To Write More

This is less a poem,

More a recommitment.

To myself.

And to you.

Exorcising demons via words typed on blank pages,

Engages times forgotten, and paves paths for moments yet to be.

In my laziness and adjunct pride I –

Began to buy my own bullshit.

Aloof.

As if the parameters for understanding could be captured by rogue stanzas.

The inner perfectionist pleading for me to reneg on dreams exposed.

Though I now know

That beauty based in imperfection flies in the face of symmetry.

To be a poet is to be a witness.

And it’s time I begin to see.
