Mutations

Poetry is an elegant yet crude road map of the human experience. Riddled with words left unsaid, tales of woe and a love so fierce it burns suns. All tied together neatly with a bow of alluring charm. Each verse encompassing the destruction and heartache of fire, the graceful finesse of water, the safety and warmth of Earth and last but not least the unpredictability of wind. Endeavouring to uncover the unbridled truth in the murky pits of a poem is futile. Poetry is a mysterious art that takes on a new form with each poet. In its simplest definition, it is a mutation subject to evolution.
