IN RESPONSE TO A POST I REBLOGED http://artlesspoems.wordpress.com/
By http://seanbidd.com/ and me (:
Should your pin run out of ink
Seek out small pieces of chalk on a wayward journey
Or
Pledge allegiance to the clouds
Grip your memory up
And say the words out loud
We are not always promised this liberties end
Say goodnight to justice
And sweet dreams to your pin
Find shared pavements and walls
Grace them with poetic voice
And colors of the temporary moments in changing worlds
To an underworld of unheard and lost verbs
Waging war between ink and brain
The fear is not what’s lost
But what’s replaced between the pains
Ink injections make way between your veins
Let them yell
Scream
Talk
Have conversations between the earths
But after the ink is gone
It will be my memories transformed this silent birth
Rising energy from beneath this tattered girth
But above all always set them free
The words
The thoughts
The lines
The memory
Will never let go of me
Even when the ink dissipates
And deviates from my pin
Challenging my thoughts to bring forth memory again
The lines
The words
Let them be free to discover their atmosphere
Because deadlines won’t wait for the ink
