Sea of Words

* these pieces are from several years ago at university, presented as a way of charting the changes in my writing, and re-evaluating pieces I was very happy with at that stage.

Drowned and swallowed
phrases and syllables,
only breathing through the
grace of the boyant imagination
of a million writers
draining the sea of it's words,
leaving me only precious few
for my own.
I gathered them together
and fashioned this tale,
promising to return them to
the sea of words
when I was done
so a million others may drown.
