I Find Myself in All Directions

I find myself in all directions




I found it in my stoic self
and ate it’s flesh
it’s residue
left

behind for others to salivate
over and not
use to copy
right

form styles ink through a saline drip
that's fed with silt
for retainer
below

all it’s translucent definite
constricted means
will continue
above

I always try my best to understand these types of poetry. But I can't.

I am sure something important and clever being said. I wish I knew what it was...

I have to say that I can't get to grips with this one. It eludes me.

It's about us as writers, Our influence on others and their influence on us. The desire to get published but more importantly, the desire to just WRITE!!
