“Weight of Words.” 🌀 [*Poetry Slam Challenge #4*] Original Poem, Entry #1.

 
Falsehood causes us to fear the noble poet. 

Poet throwing sacred sounding spells. 

Spells which penetrate us and make him confident. 

Confident words wail against the walls of our minds.

Minds reel, seemingly running away. 

Away from the image inducing pain. 

Pain prompted by the gift of the received revelation. 

Revelation, which thinks it doesn’t deserve or want to exist…

Exist it does, so with no choice we let it lay and rest. 

Rest, allowing it to silently settle, and slowly. 

Slowly, it becomes part of who we are. 

Are we merging our thoughts?

Thoughts blending together, pain becoming pleasure? 

Pleasure because together were decreasing space. 

Space isolating us, each cold and alone. 

Alone from each other no longer, using only Words between us, our Unity stronger…
