So you don’t like poetry?

It’s a voice

Just like you and me

It shortens distances

Allowing all together to see

Souls gravitated

By crafted boundaries

Poetry transcends

These misled trajectories

It makes it clear

By pointing the obvious

Where hearts turn blind

And minds oblivious

It understands

The human psyche

Beyond known oratory

Meant to strike a spike

It partakes

In oddity and beauty

All at once

A human with a duty

It makes those

Voiceless have a voice

It makes those

Without choice design a choice

It gives meaning to words

And words leave a mark

When one’s brain battery drops charge

It lights phosphorous in the dark
