POET SUBMERGED

I write despite conflicts
and anger I have inside
I see no signs in my
metaphysical plain
where my stories reside
away from reality where
hope has died and where
my aging body remains

I am homeless in liquid form
dark in the depths of little horn
I taste the drink of liquid ink
black in dance, images perform
letters adorned prickly and thorned

I again cast a light
in the darkness
of written word
where only echoes are heard

I am a Poet submerged...

in thought

I feel peace in poetry and story. Real world pisses me off. I understand the emotion of this poem. Hard to feel comfort when mind cannot rest. Thank you for the excellent poem.

I simply love this.. I read it on the other site and loved re reading it here.. It takes the reader deep inside themselves ..submerged in their own echoes...their own thoughts.. well done..xo

i liked the off beat rhyme here, nothing too structured. as poets we have to free ourselves up to write, forget about the boring and the mundane and search for universal truths. i liked the way you described the process of writing poetry towards the end of this or rather what it is to you.

I am homeless in liquid form........I am a poet submerged.........fantastic! I have missed reading you Rene. My internet was down for almost a month. It feels good to be back.

Just Brilliant Sir Rene! :)

Oh well when I read the title, it was like "submerged(?)"...but why,where,how? and when I read the end, it was like magic! yes indeed, we are all immersed in thoughts, so many thoughts that they overflow and vanish unless penned down, so its better that we submerge ourselves and retrieve one by one our thoughts from this vast ocean and preserve them ! this writing of yours can be interpreted in so many different ways and yes in your way too...every line in this read reflects poetry...deep and insightful :)

Very inspiring, especially to every poet, every writer, looking for those perfect words. You definitely found them here...great piece.
