realization
realization
on the beach
dejected in darkness
discouraged
with my writing
i tossed my book
of worthless words
into the water
to my surprise
it floated
delighted i watched
as the waves carried
my ship of words
out into the ocean
it was then
that i realized
my words
were much
better sailors
than poems
