Let the powers that be, draw you ever so near
Ignite the madness, let its path lead you clear
To the place where the words cluster together
Written in rhyme, with ink, pen and a feather
Word of the Day – Ignite
FOWC with Fandango – Madness

We pour out our hearts, sometimes we feel better
With every single word, with every solitary letter
Written from the soul, a place we hold sacred
Baring the hidden, we’re stripped down and naked
Others may find us a little bit quirky
They can’t figure us out, it’s all a bit murky
Yet, we are not here to be figured at all
We write with our blood, the ink, alcohol
Not the kind from a bottle, though it might surely help
The kind you won’t find, on anyone’s shelf
It flows through our veins, like the rapids, it seeks
Unsuspecting, our readers, those that we may bespeak
And they who have found us, await us again
They keep coming back, no they dare not refrain
From reading the page with the words, yes, our verse
These poems we write, they’re our glory, our curse

What happens when the words just fade?
When thoughts no longer are displayed
Upon the empty parchment, where
They used to dance, without a care
Poured so sweetly from my pen
I need to find those words, again
The ones that bared my heart and soul
Emotions, I could not control
Perhaps, they’ve found another place
And I am just another face
Perchance, they’ll once again return
To quell this everlasting yearn

Insanity, the incessant need
To put pen to paper, indelible ink
Invisible, yet clearly seen
Leaving a mark, permanently
Inscribed, on blank pages
Merely, the story of our life

I am an artist
Whose paintbrush
Flows with the ink
Of pictures written
On a canvas bare
Letters in perfect symmetry
Romancing the palette
A portrait in verse
