Narratives, imperatives
some implied, some denied
some languishing inside
some in thirds, some in words
some chanted by the birds

Narratives, imperatives
some smooth, some jagged
some rich and some ragged
in sound and on pages
for misfits and sages

Narratives, imperatives
our stories persisting
our worries insisting
for love and for hate
for emotional weight

for release... and escape.
We all have stories to tell... sometimes only to ourselves.

That's the plight of the poet, is it not? All that we truly wish to say we often tell no one but ourselves. Such a futile existence. I sometimes wonder what manner of reward could be worth the uncertainty and despair.
