I Love Being A Poet by prospect11(m): 4:40pm On Feb 17, 2017
MY INK, MY BLOOD .

prospect is a poet

In my blood, my ink is found

I flow though lines

As my blood flows through it course

I stick to the script

Like the osteocyte in my marrow

My blood faints not

My ink never dries

This blood is my life

My ink is all I've got

I flow to describe

I never cease to educate

This flow gives enlightenment

I don't skip correction

The truth is what I'd say

I don't care if you give a reproach

I love to make you feel alive

I am a life to the depressed

I flow throughout the world

Whenever you are, forget poignancy

I flow to heal your soul

Your freedom, My happiness

My ink may look like yours

But mine is granted an authority

It functions beyond limit

Even after am gone

I heard of it works, in places I've never been

My ink does not languish

Enjoy the flow of my blood

Flourish in the flow of my ink

My ink, my blood.
