Writing
Why do we write what we write?
This poetry for example.
What makes me place these words
onto this piece of paper?
Am I searching for enjoyment?
Or is it something deeper?
Am I searching for the soul of man?
Or the soul of me?
Perhaps this is the only way
to say what I have to say.
Perhaps I with to please all.
Without fear.
Whose thoughts come out on paper?
Perhaps we will never know
what makes us do these things.
But in the meantime man will never cease,
to write down,
every thought.
