Today

Today we’re gonna write a poem
write it about your life
it’s the only thing that is actually yours
no one else is allowed to write about it


Find the place inside you
That you never knew was inside you
Look for the piece of you
That denies what the world does to you

Beating bright light
Laser beam indestructible
Unwavering pure channel
Core of your existence

Put down some words
Doesn’t need to rhyme
Match up some images
Let the magic begin!


Open and vulnerable
Never touched or warped
Sleeping or waking or drunk or crazed
Blazing within the universe


You can find it any time
You only need to look
Match up some words to it
So others can find it on a page or in a book.
