I Want to Be a Poet. I Want to Be a Writer.

I want to be a poet.

I want to be a writer.

I picture my writing like a waterfall,
beatiful when everything flows just right.
but sometimes gets blocked,
over-flowed; choppy at best.

Sometimes the clogs fix itself
but ocasionally needs outside help.
On a good day visitors come
and comment about the water
However, some don't see the sparkle
only the flowing river
moving to places they can't see
going somewhere far

because at the end of the day everything changes,
nothing is the same anymore.
the waterfall still looks the same
but inside it has greatly changed.
What makes the waterfall what it is
the people who visit
help unclog the dirt
that prevents the water from flowing
