Ode To A PencilOde to a Pencil

With your tip laced in creation, And you ending soaked in correction.
You enable me to pour my worlds, To show this world what ticks in my head.
I’ve always been drowning in my imagination,
My lungs had always fill with luke-warm water of pure ideal, thought.
You gave me an escape, back before you, I had felt as if I had been locked in a room,
A room with no doors or windows,
With bare white angry walls, and tiled floor, cold and unforgiving.
The only means of expressing the raving thoughts, That consumed m Ode To A Pencil

I am from bouncy couches
Forts made of comforters and pillows
Barbies and Power Rangers.

I am from neighborhoods where you can’t go out at night
Desert sky’s with no rain
And snowy winters that hit -30.

I am from moving trucks with no air conditioning
New schools
Sweaty palms and clenched hands.

I am from green men in gentlemen’s suits
A boy named John who couldn’t see
And Karen and Desiree who played with my hair.

I am from frequent family gatherings
Pretending to be cats
Simon says.

I am from loving parents
Home cooked meals
Pinky promise siblings.

I am from astrology
Tarot cards
Playing records backwards.

I am from 9 o’clock bedtimes
Traditional ‘Forever’
Repeating memorized prayers
Always hearing “You are loved”.
