If I could have a word with you. I promise I’ll be quick. To tell you the truth, although the truth could make you sick. Those words you write on that paper, those words you think are smooth. Those words mean nothing, those words are useless. Poet to poet dear let’s have a chat. I could be the teacher as well as the student. Poetry comes from the heart, it comes from the soul. It’s not something to be trifled with nor is it something to be mistaken. Poetry is a powerful thing. It could make people love, it could make someone angry. It could help you through a bad day or even cause you to have one. Poet to poet dear let’s have a drink. For my mouth is parched from talking. I feel my words land on deaf ears but you will see in the next few years how poetry can change a man’s world. That’s right it’s a man’s world. Well let me tell you something he spoke poetry because that world aint nothing without a girl. You see poetry is everywhere and for you to doubt that is sad. For you to make it a mockery makes you sad.
Don’t get up now, I just speak the truth. I told you I would be quick and that the words could make you sick. But that’s all that poetry is baby. Poetry is the truth. Poetry is a force of nature;it’s a force that man should cherish as well as they cherish their cars. It’s a force that lets us educate, build and reshape ourselves.
So now you know, class is dismissed. I hope you won’t forget was said here. Just remember, think, learn and reminisce. Poet to poet let’s have a chat dear.
