Artistry


Whoever coined the phrase:

“ Keep In Mind That I’m An Artist,  And I’m Sensitive About My Sh!t”


Harnessed - My Sentiments..... EXACTLY!


Nothing conveys who I am better than what's often perceived as an obstinate writing style. I view sentence structure; punctuation, adjectives and the use of proper grammar as a dictator placing limitations on individuality.


I thoroughly enjoy writing abstracts, slang, and haiku's. To many of poets/writers there isn't a grammatically correct way to state what comes from ones inner depth/vision. 


The following poem is dedicated to: 

My Artistry 

The sound of scribble gliding across paper
A euphoria of remembrance
Captured forever


Etching my thoughts
Released from within
Bleeding on paper
I am the words of my pen


Stroked across
An abyss of whiteness
Disregarding blue lines
There are no boundaries


Expression
Cannot be confined
Obedient
To the margins
Penmanship
Collectively
Conspiring...


Knowing thyself
There are no blockages


Consciousness
In tune with 
The fabric of my senses
Led by Intuition's
Spiritual vestige 


Capturing impermanence
Relinquishing the essence
 Tomorrow
Second guesses


Writer of today
Teaching me what
One has to learn
To obtain 

Abstain
Differentiate 
Ways 
To say and feel


In peace
I stand still
Another day comes forth
Opposing actions
Reveal


Words
of a writer  
Speaker
of a story


Delve
Within concentration
Becoming the semantics
Before thee

Writing Is My Sustenance 
It will forever:




Where 
We can be alone
Where 
We can be free......




"As a writer, one spends a lifetime journeying into the heart of language, trying to minimize, if not eliminate, the distance between language and thought. Language is the skin on my thought"~*Arundhati Roy
