for most
words become too important
if typed up

then we
punch at them
like the empty things
they are

there were
poets who wanted to live
only for writing
to be able to have
the words

and knew
poverty would
follow

oh to see the world
and live only for poetry

every writing
more precious

than amber
than pearls
or carbuncles
