lyrics

IMAGINE IT.


It opens up to a sky, like any beginning, begging to be original. It's referential so that you can understand it and quote it, but there's evidence, you'll notice, that it's been written and rewritten like a love note you thought you were going to give her before the last bell the first day of 8th grade and now you're worried it's too blurry from the sweat of your palm as you hear your name called and your family shouting from the bleachers.


Written and rewritten like something in cursive of which the meaning's been stripped because that's not what's important. What's important is this: accomplishing what you set out to do because you're passionate.

Because you're not nondescript, you're intricate.

Because you don't have to be in conflict with the intimate, in cognitive dissonance, because you're cognizant of your potential and repentant of pestilential thoughts that say you're not.

Don't be distraught.

A starving artist, starving yourself of influence just to avoid creation just to avoid attention isn't sparing you of pain, it's self inflicted shame claiming you're not responsible for feeling optional… but you are.

If you don't accept that love note, that cursive, that sweat soaked courage, then you can't expect others to and won't give them the opportunity to pay their dues. They're not here to push you away, even if they'll try to, that's not their call, that's you deciding to walk away from what you want.

about

Micah Kimber, Mustache Poetry Richmond, Virginia

My heart is to Love and connect with others by sharing art.
We're each valuable individuals, made in God's image, with art worth sharing.
If you create, share. If you aren't creating, scared of how it'll turn out or how others will respond, I understand. But art is self expression. It's for YOU first. If it's real, you'll want to be heard and someone will hear.
If anything, share it with me.
