Ode To Expression

Fatherd by inspiration Mothered by poetry

You infected my soul and inadvertently set me free

I died in the arms of your daughter melody

Lyrically she changed me

Mentally I felt her reality in the beat

Of a drum the sounds whose vibrations originllay comes

From the street from a stompin my feet

To the tune of my eternal heart beat

The same thumpin that perpetually stopped

When I laid eyes on upon the light

Your son,philosphy,he afflicted me with spiritual leprosy

Cleansing all the lies

And burdens of deception

So here's to you

My voice

My source

My savior

this was quite creative. . . i loved how you described complicated words as though they were people themselves.

Reading this takes me to sitting in an audience as you stand on stage with the microphone in your word with the drummer striking on just the right lines to emphasise your point as you rasp out your emotions to the sound of your expression set free to yourself, the world, and now poetry.
