Something Left Out
If poetry is all it's cracked up to be
Then why not do it all the time
Let's just allow the Word
that was
in the beginning
to carry our lives
to write the story
Why
our insides would turn all out
Yes
they would
But we're already insides out
Poetry just acknowledges that turning
and
as we know
What is seen and acknowledged
basks in light
And what is not acknowledged
sulks in the shadow
And I guess
that's how come we have good and evil
Someone started poeting
and praising
and left something out . . .
