I Can WriteA Poem by John Dennis GillespieWe can all write our way into history.I couldn't write and I wanted to. I wrote anyway and decided to disregard the need for a topic. I could write about writing. I could write about dreams. I could write about society. However, everything I have ever thought about has been said or written. I could write about how depressing it is that none of my ideas are my own. I could write about how my life is not my own, but instead it is a tiny tug on a rope that every man holds. I could write about how at how at the moment I pass away, it wouldn't be of any importance because someone is going to take my place in the line of life. However, if I write enough that my impact leaves a void that difficult to replace, I could write myself into history. © 2013 John Dennis Gillespie |
