The Art of Words

The words beyond the poetry are here

Just put your hand upon my sacred heart

Let’s feel the pulse of magic we revere

Let’s listen to the sounds beyond the art

Beyond the art is more than simple noise

Beyond the art the artist begs your leave

To share the reverent hope the world destroys

To share what fills that cracks of cracked reprieve 

The words beyond the poetry are gone

Before the pulse of magic leaves to beg

Before we find the colors of the dawn

And tack them down with some semantic peg

The words may be the pegs we find to use

The words beyond the poetry we choose.
