    The Island

    Stick my hand in the flame to see what the fire inspires
    See if I can feel my wants, and needs, my heart’s desires
    Longing for creativity I’m a victim of the art
    A king on my imagination
    The Sire alone on an ark
    A prisoner of sound, colors, thoughts, and words on stationary
    The rebel without a cause lost in a world that’s lost
    Through culture I have found a place where no one care about my face
    I exist without a race
    On a island called creativity
    They embrace whatever you do
    I invite you to voyage with me
    To meet other just like you
    On a path to originality
    The island

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
