Words and me.

Words Words Words! Sometimes Words can obscure the whole meaning of Life!

Just words, i have, 

just words i Know, 

in words, i live,

in words, i flow. 

 

Words i see, 

words i touch, 

words has me,

 in it's addicting clutch. 

 

To words, i submit,

my misery and muses,

words carry me,

to delightful amuses.

 

Words i read, 

words i sigh,

words i bleed,

 words i cry. 

 

Words, i cherish,

with words i fly, 

in words, i burn, 

in words, i die. 

 

Under words, i glow,

over words, i sail,

for words, i breathe,

without words, i am frail. 

 

Words, talk to me,

for words, i sing,

words gets me really high,

when words i drink.

 

Words, in my veins,

runs across my heart,

with every words, i release, 

a part of me departs. 

 

Neither for money,

nor for machines am designed,

words,just with words, 

i am am destined.

 

Just words,i have,

just words, i know,

in Words, i live,

in Words, i flow...

Dear yusuf

Impressed!

I can keep it short and sweet in my reviews at times.

Style: the endless repetition of 'words' their importance to you as a human being and a writer is skilfull;

Content and meaning: This piece can only ever, I should imagine, appeal to all of this community of writers. We are, each in our own way, wordsmiths. We write them better than we speak. At times they are the only way we can relate to life, explain it to oursleves. Sometimes,as I feel it, when I write, what I am actually doing is not addresssing anyone. I am simply writing a letter to myself.

Langauge, foreign or my native tongue (to English I add fluency in French and academic study of Ancient Greek and Latin), words have always mattered to me. Even post academic, in busisness life, their mode of expression had importance. It was not ars gratia artis, it was ars for cash.

I wrote 5 page reports on mergers and acquisition deals or 100 page reports. I had to critique the business my client was buying to ensure they were not buying a pup or paying over the odds. But ever there I wished to turn the otherwise bland and prosaic report into a work of art.

Your words, any of ours as writers, must spark a reaction in a reader otherwise
they may only ever be a letter to self.

You have just sparked mine.

And this was it.

Charmed by this piece of writing.

Yours truly

Thank You So Much dear fellow poet. I am obliged and ennobled by your word. :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

this is the poet's poem...most definitely...and it just flows like an escalator coming down...smooth.

one place though..."words have me / in their addicting clutch"

but wow...the very short lines give this such a bouncy rhythm too.

An excellent poem, and true too. You have done very well here. It might be worth making it slightly shorter, maybe edit some of the verses, as the message is clear and doesn`t need such length. Good work.

[yusuf]
