Admit one

Admit One

writing is the ticket to
my salvation.
pen and paper are friends
carryin’ me up-up-an’-away,
beyond mountains, thru clouds
until my head is dizzy, whirring,
fuzzy with goodness-fulfilling-soul.

by spinning this irresistible yarn
I steal the spotlight [back]
from all that iron rod pain and pollution,
and turn upon fertile soil vast in my mind
where fruit grows from gnarled roots of
sweet-bittersweet-rotten memories
mixing together to create the most
soul-fulfilling-goodness

writing is the ticket to my salvation
what is yours?
