Do you understand the word
how meaning relates to it
the small source of infussion
that cannot quickly forget.
This way of talking
that we all dare to speak
with wisdom, grace affoarded
the language of the day.
How I write may confuse
may dig into your soul
what your fear confides in you
you wish for some control.
I write in windows paradise
this grand illusion kept
but remember this I beg of you
what once was feared, is anger left.

How I write may confuse

and touch ... and sate ... saturate.
put my mind at ease ... make me beg please.
impress ... inspire ... take me higher.
move to tears ... sooth my fears ... remain for years.

tis never easy being a moth,
tis not easy being the flame.
what some never see is--
sometimes ... most times ...
they are one in the same.

Jm, stole all my lines.

================================

I write in windows paradise
this grand illusion kept
but remember this I beg of you
what once was feared, is anger left.
=====================================

I think these last two lines say it all. Even if we can "write away" some of our anger, then that in itself is worth the ink.

Love,
