Spell It Out

life

pen in hand forgot what I had to say but wrote some stuff on paper anyway halfway through inexplicably it came back to me contradictory laughable and unjustifiable it turned out to be poetry theoretically speaking the need to express feelings and emotions residing within never meant to be understood like a baby crying "the babies crying" no one knows what the babies saying yet it is evident the baby's expressing a need to be fed changed comforted and cared for the baby cries out of loneliness baby's need to be cuddled cradled and rocked constantly attended to empathically to remain calm in an awaken sense of outrage all a poet needs to do is write out the unexplainable need to write shh! don't wake the baby  "its gone cry"
