...And then, I was just an inkspot
as a poet waiting to be woke
behind a veil of life's paintbrush
through the avenues I wandered
over cobblestones I toke
until the quirleys became words
letting my emotions flow
through the rapids of my soul
as my shadow stood idly by
fasting twilight hungering thirst
in a game of my crazy house blend
as my words became smoke
