What is a writer?

A thoughtsmith

Shaping words

With heat and strength

Into something you can wield.

Sometimes a sword

Sometimes a candlestick.

A poet much the same

But more nonsensical,

Like a soldier

Who dances into battle.

No less effective

Just different.

If you do it well enough

It can be understood

In every language

Like “Coffee” or “Mama”,

And maybe just maybe

Make people wonder

If we’re made for something different.

– Vagabond Prophet
