What is writing?

by Kristi Paik

a series of ideas
arranged in X amount of lines
conveying a thought (feelings if you must)

The ideas must fit
Just like the moth to it’s enticing flame

Self control is key
Look it up you'll see!
It is a game with rules
Grammar, spelling, fonts and formats
It's just words otherwise…or is it?

Author's Note: Dedicated to Ms. Malone, who taught me that my writing stems from too much irrationality.

kristi, ...ask Ms. Malone if it is irrationality of us orrrrr the rest of civilization...good, cute and yet a thoughtful write, i think always of writing about what thought [carrying a caravan of ides, feelings] to put down and carry it to fruition, and yet, my point or a poet's point coulllllld easily be misconstrued by another's connotation...good significant write...
