the revolutionary
is precisely that
which is least often
popularly understood.
the key to grasping it
lies in the merciless,
unwavering pursuit..
not of the popular..
but of your deepest,
personal truth.

I am content
with never breaking mainstream,
with never being popularly understood..
because my purpose
is to carve out for myself..
out of my innermost being..
a novel meaning of my own.
a meaning truest to my heart
and a reflection of my soul.

for my authentic beauty, I’m aware by now,
there are at least a couple tasters.
so long as they continue seeing me..
my fire for them will continue burning bright.
I write for me alone, but those who fuel it
are usually aware of who I think about
whenever I take up The Poet’s quill to write.
whether it be upon a dimly lit..
or else upon a dark and moonless night.
