What Do the Words Mean?

Poetry is for those of us thinking with our heart.

What Do the Words Mean?

 

It can’t mean what the words might say

But the feelings they together emote

When the poet touches pen to paper

And readers read what they wrote

 

The blue sky is not what’s overhead

But expression of poet’s wild freedom

Coming from exploring written frontiers

Taking away someone’s deep boredom

 

The bubbling brook in the green forest

Is just another expression of peace

But this poem just isn’t quite right

Because these words mean what they say

We who depend on words, there would be no need for poets....
and that would be a sad state for us and our followers.
Always,
Deborah

I wonder sometimes what the world would be like without poets, I don't want to know.

Don't go gettin' all tricky on me...I was just starting to have an understanding and then....
It is true the many things we write to express feelings, emotions, imaginations and so many other things of our presence appear often to be a clear expression--not so, many of them are far from the literal sense. Stop telling our secrets, Dayvid...people will start to speak metaphorically.

Indeed, poetry is a wild form of expression and no amount of censorship can tame what's inside the poet's mind...well-written poetry should teach and the reader should walk away educated to begin new journeys, not be locked in some fucking religious dogma by those narrow minded and uneducated spreading religious propaganda that is false and skewed...Dayvid Gray reports in his poetry, the facts of what is churning in his mind!

Love and Wild Freedom,
Sage

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
