Bleeding Ink (Rewrite)

Poetry flows
through my veins;
these words
are my lifeblood.

Poetry is transported
by muse vessels
into my body of work.

It is set in motion
by the pumping
of inspiration
from my mind
to my hands.

I must keep
these verses circulating
to avoid writer’s clots.

Poetry flows
through my veins;
these words
are my reason for being.
