Cutting Edge Creativity

Words honed like a knife
Written to cut and take a slice
Of those standing in my path
All in the name of Art
All in the name of Poetry

Friendships dismantled once strong
Dedicated now to show wrongs
Righteous beliefs over-riding
It’s allowed in Art
It’s allowed in Poetry

Vows broken to stand in ever love
But when push came to fateful shove
It doesn’t mean as much
As creating Art
As creating Poetry

Night quiet facing simple fact
Keep emotional honesty intact
Responsible and accountable
Even in Art
Even in Poetry

Words slashed to the bones
Righteous, still one stands alone
Heart rooms echo
With only Art
With only Poetry

...

"Words honed like a knife

I heard your "heart rooms echo" and it sounded tempting enough for me to take another "slice" ... so I read you twice.
(great word usage here ... knife, cut, slice ... very clever)

always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same

this made me sad, as it comes to me very personal....and I suppose I'm turning it around a bit, but I believe everyone's become so easily insulted that the only way to cope it to put it in poetry or art?

Hugs to you, so so nice to see you back

feelings expressed in poetry...and the truth sometimes is too much to read

yes, this aches

I like this one. If it wasn't for poetry I don't know what I would do sometimes.

"Introspection is good for the soul, right?"

angst is hard
and only art and poetry last forever
ah my dear aziza
love is better for the soul
but in its absence
introspection is necessary

I really love this poem

Your emotions are read easily in your art, and your poetry, yet you leave scores of mystery.
