I Wish To Write
I wish to write like:
the scent of perfume
with oohs and ahs
to accompany the waft
of each and every word
I wish to write like:
the taste of guilty pleasures
marinated, familiarly spiced words
easy to swallow
leaving you wanting for more
I wish to write like:
the sound of doppling trains in the night
transposing the mundane
into images of romance
and dreams of farther horizons
I wish to write like:
the sight of the Grand Canyon
words deeply seated
in a massive
and truly majestic vision
I wish to write like:
the feeling of Being
sparse in words
unafraid
confident in the unequivocal right to be
the scent of perfume
with oohs and ahs
to accompany the waft
of each and every word
I wish to write like:
the taste of guilty pleasures
marinated, familiarly spiced words
easy to swallow
leaving you wanting for more
I wish to write like:
the sound of doppling trains in the night
transposing the mundane
into images of romance
and dreams of farther horizons
I wish to write like:
the sight of the Grand Canyon
words deeply seated
in a massive
and truly majestic vision
I wish to write like:
the feeling of Being
sparse in words
unafraid
confident in the unequivocal right to be
