We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for." ~ Professor Keating (Robin Williams) in "Dead Poet's Society"

Bearings
Bearings
My thoughts float out of their caves Into the blinding light of sun. Why do I cry? Words tell me what to do. I see and I am blind. I fill my heart with food and my heart sings.
