Poet Scientist


Ever been in love?
In love, with poetry?
Ever stayed up late,    real late
think-ing
dream-ing
taste-ing
full-feel-ing
soul-ing to
mind-ing
to hand-in    pen to paper
write-ing
see-ing, breathe-ing
a vision
a painting
a story
laid out
within the foundations and bosom of your spirit
until it sang its freedom song
and escaped your
rib cage of a lab cage?


Ever been that poet scientist
experiment-ing
invent-ing
create-ing
no fear-ing
spoken word-ing
add-ing and some
subtract-ing
your special elements of a poem potion?,
then letting it all go
setting that poem monkey
in your poetry pump-ing
poignant
love make-ing
heart fixate-ing
blues remedy-ing
rib cage of a lab cage
free?


Ever been in love?
In love, with poet-try?
'cause that is what a poet scientist does.
A poet scientist
tries
with all be-ing and soul
then does and becomes
all of
IT.
