I down
a cup
of jitterbugs
& shovel
handfuls
of knowledge up
I will it
to inspire me
& I give in
to ink tangents
and the fire
I make
miracles
out of messes
& destroy
that which
doesn’t serve
I believe
that purity
of divine love
is the truth
of what we
really deserve
I do this
to stay alive
& enjoy the lessons
I’m given;
It’s all I know
about how to survive
