About Me, When I'm About You

365 Days of Creativity

day ninety nine

I've got a seahorse on my shoulder

and a feather in my hair

There's a motto on my wrists

that reminds me night is there,

A glass bottle on my hip

filled with sand that isn't fair

and a piercing in my lip

that I bite when thoughts are blared,

I've got eyes that watch with hunger

at what other people scare

and a mind that moves with wonder

at the sounds of Fred Astaire,

In my dreams I am successful

intriguing, debonair

Writing words that will inspire

Open eyes like crimson flare,

I've got notions that could change your mind

if to hear them you would dare

And this broken world led by the blind

with sight, we will repair

I see brighter skies for you and I

and though sometimes we'll err

The goal is not in being right

but to simply, be aware.
