Not in paragraphs, pages
The Great American Novel, No,
I have found my voice.
Moments captured in word and rhyme.
Free form verse, a cadence,
A mystery, an image,
Coming alive, to life.
A wonder to me, just as much,
Seeing the words on the page
Flickering on the screen
Nothing I can point to, to touch;
A stream of consciousness.
Spell check turned off,
Why spoil the mood.
Where did the words come from
Bursting forth, all of a sudden.
Out of the cosmos, the ether
Where were they hidden.
Why these words;
Why do they cry out,
Why now?
I am free.
I am offered freedom.
I am given permission,
To share thoughts untold.
To be real, authentic
To open up.
To live.
