The promoter

The promoter

A Poem by Lana

People tell me 
If only you learned
Maybe your words would be pretty
Maybe you wouldn't swallow the salty water
And maybe the words would sing
But I do feel like my heart writes for me
Especially when I'm angry the letters shoot 
Leaving a trail of gun powder 
And I let it slide or crash into the abyss
Of life 
Writing is a piece of your anatomy
It's part of your arms
Your legs
Your veins
You do it even when you don't hold a pen
It's all part of the brain
The last traces of thought
Were created by nothing but pure air
It will be read by nobody
Because this whole thing
Will be destroyed in a matter of minutes
In a thousand million years
I will be gone
And Earth will sink like the Titanic
It was just showbiz
And whether you like it or not
You are the artist
And the question on everyone's lips is
Who is the promoter?
