Wordsmith

This is what we do described with the wordplay of a blacksmith...

 

Wordsmith

By: Lalli

 

 

I take letters and I bend them to my will

My words are forged with more fortitude than steel

 

I am a wordsmith

 

I’m a wordsmith equipped with an immensity of tools

Rules apply only featherweight to my defenses

As I relentlessly hammer towards the perfection of my craft

Then meticulously cut its shape with love and not wrath

I articulate the meaning of my intentions

And mold my expression into messages to be coherently digested

 

I’m a wordsmith sculpting sentences with the blue heat of my torch

With fabricated transitions held together by weld pools

Melted in conjunction with descriptors of emphasis and punctuation

Then brazed to accentuate an artistic finish

 

I’m a wordsmith with creative design assigned to assimilate an artillery line

Erecting a silo of weaponry from figures of speech

In a process called a meta-simi-ph-analogy

Catastrophically aimed with precision

Crushing the adversary of misinterpretation

 

I am a wordsmith

 

I’m a wordsmith skilled in the art of verbalization

Molding, bending, and cutting ideas into visions

With intellect and a heart intertwined the release of expression

Composes images to inspire the mind

They are the colorized muses behind the passion to why a wordsmith writes

EXCELLENT! The analogies were easy to follow. It was vivd; very colorful, clear and concise. Well put together. I'm sure this is crazy as a spoken word piece. This is an inspiration as well as a guideline for any writer that's worth their salt. I would definitely have to concur that you are a wordsmith...

Good stuff, man. This is very much your own style of playing with and shaping the language in your poetry -- very emotional and lucid. I would have liked the poem to be dirtier, visually anyway. If you're talking about a blacksmith's work, or wordsmith in this case, I automatically think soot and grime and heat... I think it could add an interesting dimension to the poem, and I know you could fly with the wording and language. Otherwise, this is a really fun and creative poem! Thanks for sending this read request -- please send more! Definitely keep up the good work, sir.

Dear Lalli,

This is an inspired write. And surely everyone that writes poetry of prose pieces will identify with this. It is a very strong and bold piece. Strong and bold pieces are your suit, but this one excels. Perhaps this is because it is introspective and you know the topic so well. Nevertheless, this piece screams of your passion for words and bending them to your meaning. I took great pleasure in reading this. Excellent write, my friend.

Very best regards,

Rick

This is really, really, good. Me, I just throw my Scrabble letters around and see what I can come up with. ;) Seriously, really really good. Kudos to you.
