Am not writing -
creating a beautiful architecture
measuring words in teaspoons of rhyme, rhythm, candor
loading with intertextual metaphors in history and theory
Am ranting.
I don't have the luxury
to weigh
to balance
to contemplate
to think through.
Poetry is not a hobby for me
it's a reflex
when one of you groped and fled
whistled and sniggered
catcalled and dragged
Poetry is not a search for me
it's where i belong
after each night of violation
where i curl up in peace
after draining my tears
In tiara of words.
Am not writing, am ranting.
