Why it Matters
August 6, 2013
Writing is the pair of stilts
That will not fit my feet
And words are the tightwire
I know I’ll never cross
But oh, to see above these walls
And oh, to cross that void

I throughly enjoyed this poem. The simplicity and truth combine and create a wonderful poem for us poets to read.
