The Purpose Of A Poem

These words should mean something

Exist to share insight

Evoke a feeling

But also

Conform to a rhytmically pleasing vomit of language


Create a feeling

Leave you reeling

Inspire a creative thought

Help connect dot to dot


Exert emotion they should

Tell you what others wish they could

Teach you how to hide from a storm

Fit to a mold but be freeform


Make you feel someone understands

Someone similar with who you hold hands

A tight embrace in form of lines

Now maybe you can understand the signs


Create or leave

Inspire and help

Let yourself grieve

Don’t forget to believe


That’s all in words I could leave

Take away which notion you perceive
