When Once a Scribbler
Words on a page
invite, assuage
a pain, a hurt, a loss
with freeing turn of phrase.
The invitation is implied;
none but the right
poet need apply
to mold the phrase and give it flight.
A change of words can carve a soul
with cuts of a thousand swords.
When two poets exchange
their inner thoughts,
what once was inside now glistens on the page.
