Poetry has given me inspiration
The fact that I can
The fact that I will
The fact?
I can write poems about whatever I want
Whatever I feel
All emotions
Thoughts
Experiences
Failures
Achievements
Ups
Downs
Climbs
Falls
Every aspect of poetry comes from anonymous simplicity
Person
Place
Thing
“Thing”
Forbidden words
I can write a poem about the banned
The censored
The list of terms created from the same place as poetry
The Mind
A powerful “thing”, place, person, indeed
The only weakness?
Asphyxiation
Lack of oxygen
Choked by the apparition
Lack of passion
Passion
Derived from the powerful personification
The Brain
Billions of coalescing phenomena
This mysterious bundle of complex architecture,
Releasing sweet dopamine,
Creates poems of Its own
“Its”
“It, very, really, thing”
More groups of words that cannot be included
Why?
The ingenious aspect of her life
Incorporating true passion
Perfectly personified
Abstract
Concrete
My inspiration
My influences
Admiration
Originating from behind the desk
That white table
The spontaneous lessons
Life
Love
The beauties of writing
Expression through physical objects
I can create my poem using the intertwined fibers of my brain
Deep underneath the woven threads
Past the microscopic strings
Beyond the metaphysical visionaries
Philosophy
Reasoning
Intellect
Theory
Into the dark chamber that is my imagination
Instinct
Creativity
Truth
I have the power
The power to do whatever I want
Incorporating any aspect I want
I can mold my media
Sorrow
Happiness
Fear
Darkness
I am the artist
I paint my ideas on the canvas
Anxiety
Stress
Relief
Sickness
Love
I am the musician
I paint my ideas on silence
Silence
Tranquility
Solitude
Sent from deities
I am Peace of Mind
The state of Nirvana
Released through karma and samsara
From my inner chakra
Chakra
Nirvana
Balance
Beauty
The beauty in ideas?
Bearing ability to apply them to “anything”
“Anything, something, everything”
As the artist
As the musician
I can release my ideas
Creating true beauty
However,
This is my Ode
My praise
My love
This is about my admiration
For writing
For poetry
The beauty in poetry?
The application of one’s true imagination
The ability to conquer the chimera
To achieve reconciliation
To escape cessation
True equanimity
Complete harmony
The amalgamation of inner conceptions
Translation?
I can write whatever I want
Because the beauty in poetry,
Is painting my picture with all that is necessary
My feelings
