The Poet's Purpose Poem by Compton Wright

The Poet's Purpose



The poet's purpose… the question of oneself soul of pure literature
As one day in the star glowing night in my childhood years of the number 7
The pen and I made art masterpiece from visual imagination and creativity
From composition books to designed poetry books but all the same they all
Had my soul scriptures within each line as a new tale, emotion or an theory
I'm a man of limitless thoughts and questions so curiosity comes into action
As my journey lead into an understanding of the divine forces that haunt us for
Centuries but only to give me guidance to lead others to their rightful destinies
As poetry has brought my pathway to my inner beauty and my peace and harmony
It builds my aspects in different retrospectives of the world and Me Compton
The boy you thought as an outcast and sole wanderer but I'm quite unique inside
But you have read between the lines and don't judge a book its cover but yet
You'll look at the back and put me back in the shelf or you'll see me in a car lot
As an old wash up car but in reality with some tuning I'm the rarest car you seen
Like a diamond in the mines that hasn't been dug up yet or shown on display
Poetry is in my genes or in my alignments of my aura towards its art form
At first I used to degrade your quality but now I use symbolism to embrace
I use my imagery to describe my lives' problems and solutions…so beautiful
Abstracts of different stanzas and lines with deeper emotions and meanings
Crafts creates a design in the pen's brain that keeps the thieves at bay
And the hopeless breathing for just enough time to readjust your life frame
Willing to give poetry its pleasures, desires and enjoyment to your heart
But you have bite into the apple of knowledge but are you up to the risk?
As I see poetry as a addiction as I become sleepless not of fear but only
Ambitious to do another poem before I slumber into the clouds of ideas
Maybe that's reason I'm what I am today as I continue to write my poetry
Because I'm a poet visionary as I foreseen my future in this world so what's
My purpose towards life and poetry? To become my own future through
My words, my scriptures, and my embodiment of embraced poetic flow
