verse

Encapsulates expression in the art
Of poetry, the old stuff, where it counts

That your words have a certain rhythm
Respected
That you've mastered the language
Enough

To play with structure and still give it weight,
With meaning flowing freely in each line
To shape a message found within the beat,
And sentences appear: a different form.

But breakout-
easier like this? pushing
harder wanting
differently saying
more
this way?
blow-by-blow
hurling words

Instead of fitting them so perfectly.
If one way's better, then I know it not.
