POET OF THE NEW AGE
The secret to a proper rhyme
are the dead soul and broken mind;
all poets are shattered inside—
they need the lows to write the highs
like a heist for a borrowed time
with coarse memories made to shine,
imagining life so benign,
but reality thus declined;
shameful tears—poetry sublime.*
Thankful to my sister for randomly messaging me the line "to ride the highs you need the lows" 😘
