I am a writer

And I'm proud

I will watch you

Remember how you flicked your fringe

Out of your eyes

How you handled the weapon so briskly

While I danced with it

The form flowing on forever

The seemingly simple joints of my limbs moving

Carving through the room

Like my golden hair

Undulating when submerged

Flat and lifeless when not

Writing is art

In its own right

I notice the things you don't 

As if I was still a child

New to this world

I watch how the gilded sunlight

Falls through the hole in my desk

Among the electric cables

And strikes the wall 

With a sliver of beauty so fragile

Even the gods

Stop and wonder

Let me show you the world anew

Let it be reborn in your eyes.
