Iterations Of The Scribe

Millions of versions of verses that came before,

In different faces and forms

Athenians, Egyptians, Mayans, Aztecs, and so on

The word of creativity lives through us all,

Us writers: the bastions of literature,

Storytellers of history and the heartbeat of the industry

The words that fall into our minds like stars

An instruction from the universe

Idiots can try to erase us but they will never destroy

the power of honesty and imagination

There will be more incarnations of us

Creating fictional worlds throughout time

The only certainty, in a world of instability,

Is that we are writers, and we will continue our journey

In this life and every other

We create forever,

In the syllables of our words.
