Wordless

a poem i wrote in dedication to all them poets who love poetry and can just pull words from a unknown place within seconds of saying something.

Now, as for me,

You would think I’m one with infinite word upon his tongue

Especially being a poet

But let me say just one thing

Even poets, or just me,

Can lose track of what to say.

This poem within itself

Tells exactly what it’s about

Unless you have a hard time understanding

The simple

And easy

Wording of this poet.

Poetry is my life

But I do have other things, being a poet

That brings words right out

And draws me into a wordless

And senseless rant

That can only be understood within one mind

The mind of insanity

Or the mind of a poet.

The senseless ranting of every poet

The wordless insanity pool

Is there any blackness within one’s mind

Or is it all gone

Sucked

Drained

Of all thought

And no peace.

To this I say, “No”

For, as a poet, we all have darkness there

And that darkness brings us to the end

To the end of our days as poets

Wordless.

Go mindless rants! This poem was simple but had a nice feel to it. I wouldn't say that this needs any improvement...

This is awesome. I really enjoyed reading it..Oh yes, we all have been in that place numerous times and will probably venture there many more. You speak what every poet or writer goes through. But isn't it wonderful?

This is a "poetic rant" which I do believe means that the words are sstill there ;-))

I liked you rant of writes block. So many words to choose from can create A blackout for sure. Really good stuff.

I thought this was really good and that I think every poet has thoughts like these (of course, I can just think of anything and go along with it... lol). Anyways, I really liked this poem! :D

This is really great! Captures the insanity that goes on within every poet's mind, something that perhaps only they can understand. I really loved the lines "The mind of insanity / Or the mind of a poet.
Hmm interesting, because secretly we are all insane! ^___^ Great job!

You bring the balance of art and poetry
into persepctive in a way that identifies
the emotional intention of inspiration
Wordless-This is awsome
And draws the reader to pondeer
the meaning of writing itself
