Spoken words,

Often not enough.

Though both connect

to the same central

creativity.

Touch and taste

are unequal.

There's something 

powerful about

the embellished words

on paper.

Polished and pristine

like a work of art.

Not

fumbling words

and twisted tongues.

No.

I write,

to create

to paint a picture

more vibrant

than with the stagnant

clash of teeth and tongue.
