Just Write......

Attached to every word, as though to compensate,
are moments, summed and sorted in their turn.
Aglow with  light of reason, fuming condensate
illuminates the pages as it burns.

Seared by the charge of cliched clause, the battle
'twixt  wisdom of  vernacular excess
and language made to obfuscate intention,
rages whilst protagonists protest.

There is no perfect rhyme, no god-sent pattern;
each template placed is used once then degrades.
Words are cast like runes upon a river
to float or sink like witches on parade.

So throw your soul into the soup semantic,
stir up the pottage, simmer to reduce.
Remember aways, taste will be subjective,
and that, my friend, will be your best excuse.

Thank you for posting this poem. It is very inspiring and draws the reader to re-read it.
If it's words were runes upon the water,  alphabet soup may turn into hearty pottage. Stranger things have happened!!   G.
