Be a Poet
Call me a writer,
 One arranging words,
 Working verbs,
 Visualizing scenes.
 Call me this,
 Not a poet,
 Please.
 Not in offence
 Of those talented artists
 How I write is different
 Simply in a shifted sense,
 Composing the same phrase
 With another approach
 Although, I ponder,
 Wouldn’t a writer
 Aim to be one who’s unafraid?
 To heed right and left
 And wander both paths
 To bring endurance
 With some other technique
 To express?
 Soar for a style not to ignore
 Not better but renders a fresh aura
 A new wing to ride
 While you let your words
 Create and await how it reflects
 The fate of this altered state
 To realize, you gotta open your eyes,
 Readjust old laws, old ways,
 Finalize, pulverize tight ties
 To restricted structure and stubbornness
 Explore! Take a tour through the ignored, desolate door of yours
 Don’t tense, but rapture through the silence
 Radiate! Be an amazing, shining, springing darer
 Be one who tries to survive the tricky, clever cadence battle
 Then hence: a poet
