Below is one of the many poems I have written. I got into poetry as a means of creative writing and self-expression!
Between the Lines
You are taught to write inside the lines.
Colour within the lines.
Construct your art to fit the lines of shape.
Are they the construct we must face?
Are lines the things that guide our day?
What will happen if I cross the line?
Will I be ridiculed for the steeping over the line.
Our cities and countries divided by lines.
Our roads and highways constructed with lines we must obey.
Everyday we face the lines that run our life.
A line forms at a store.
A line forms at a school.
A line forms within for it is the societal construct relayed to all.
Cross the line.
One step.
Farther and farther from the norm.
Outside the line.
Free from form.
I am a scribble amongst the lines within.
Join me.
Be a Scribble now and then.
Leave the line.
Cross the line.
Lines form our life.
But sometimes they can curve.
