OH BLAKE

Folder: 
JOURNAL #27

                                                               I find I am quietly poor

without the rich expressive sound of your words

unmetered and lost

without the cadence of your narrative map

almost too inexperienced at being myself

but so anxious still

to smell the roses  you can so easily plant in my fertile mind

and they growl like your tiger burning bright

restless am I to retrace the portrait path of your word reflected

life

that lead you to be the post humous  celebrity

you, whom is so highly regarded, have become

what blessings sculpted you

what nurturing environment constructed the clarity and

poignancy of your gentled wonder

allow me but these own barely clad words of mine

to place upon you

the magic siphon I should need  no doubt

to better procure your commendable influence

in my own presence of mind writing

this is my humble little thank you

for giving me an educational peak

at your every day view
