inky against
the white

should
the utterance
be an undoing

with the tug
of the first letter/feel

brimming with
the unsaid

instead I go cubist
my words tectonic

and akimbo
and if needed

to climb
dropping notes

pen wide open
to all the alchemy

in MY world
where even 'they"

can't smash
ideas shooting

strings of gray matter
and laying my epiphany/page/poem

while kneeling in my heart
getting at the wall

with a ball-point/ball-peen
hammer/pen

valves still
opening and closing

laughing whisper-smoke
messages I...I am...I am different.
