Write Around The Block

He made me laugh.

I could not stop

Until I kissed him.

Then we caught fire.

Thunder and lightening

Put the rain outside.

–No room for rain.

–Just he and I.

His dark rumble and my fierce light

Go down as one into the night.

He made me cry.

I could not stop.

Until he held me.

Then we climbed higher.

Thunder and lightening

Put the rain outside.

–No room for rain.

Just he and I.

His deep tremble and my warm sigh

Go up as one into the sky.

I have been an artist since the beginning of time itself. Well I have been reckoning that it happened just that way because I got whipped for writing a poem on the wall. That was before my formal education began. My only moments of infamy and glory have had something to do with visual art and writing. Not much has changed since that rocky start!
