Why I Write Poetry

It gives rhyme to reason,

It is as elusive as a dream,

Like the changes of the season,

Poetry isn’t always what it seems.

Like spring is to summer,

And winter is to fall,

It can be a beautiful sunrise,

Or an ugly brawl.

Why I write poetry,

It can be a way to vent,

An escape from reality,

When nothing makes sense.

Upheaval and neutrality,

A soldier going into war,

Conflicting moralities,

Poetry defines what they are.

Why I write poetry,

Is to right a wrong,

For racial equality,

Not for some, but for all.

One voice, one people,

Joined by grace,

Poetry is the rhyme and reason,

Defining the human race.
