My Words
I wish I could throw my words like a football
Spiraling down the page.
I wish I could perform my words like an actor
Portraying them on stage.
I wish I could capture my words like animals
Locking them in a cage.
But my words are my words and they are my words
and they are simple and plain.
They stick to their sentence and live off of structure
And always are punctuated.
They need to be proper, both spelling and grammar
Especially if they are dictated.
They live in their context with simple plain content
Revising only as needed.
But my words are my words and they are my words
And I use none of them the same.
