journeys should not be measured by the number of followers or likes you attain
yard sticks have different depth of interpretation
when etched poetic verity is carved
on the strongest of surfaces
realizations drift
content shifts
purposeful messages are intertwined
inside of the simplicity of curved edge
letters adored with lines
artists I’ve learned house secrets
of their own written versification
in pencil on the canvas makes an appearance
perhaps phrases of joy or endurance
something to conceal the intent
of the truest of expressions
remarkable to gaze upon a finished piece
a pandora’s box of hushed moments
will never be revealed
