Dips and swallows
that's what life is to one born of thinking through artistry.
there is no measure of happiness that
can not reach certain description judged by the metaphors of sadness
there must be one of many to compare
for every beautifully scripted pain
there is a joyous rendition able to follow
pleasures must be short lived
and twisted in to tragic bows
And pain must be the constant
else the fruit of life will go un celebrated
lest we believe we are all entitled to life.
painfully, beautifully aware
I understand where the jewels in my crown are scattered
that my words are the flame of my soul
and descriptions the flicker of wonder in my minds eye
and that I am incarnate of my logios
