Keep On Writing Poem by Hebert Logerie

Writers are like saviors
Poets are like sailors
Artists are like soldiers
Singers are like beggars
Keep on writing
You don't know who's reading
Who's listening to your poems
To your internal voice
Be not afraid to make noise
To explain why those theorems
Make no sense these days
Go watch the new plays
New ideas are important
New words are like lubricant
To the brain which tends to go astray
Far from the marbles, away
From the mundane reality
Keep on writing for nobody
Because somebody's eyes will find your works
Never mind the amenities and the perks
Do not stop writing
Because you're helping
You're irrigating somebody's brain
You're alleviating somebody's pain
Writers are like saviors
Poets are like soldiers
Artists are like singers
Painters are like sailors
They are very important
Like glue and lubricant.
