The Poet



Do you believe in love at first sight?
Have you ever seen that one person
who could brighten up your day in a
matter of seconds just by smiling?
Have you ever felt a strong desire for
someone you've never spoken too?

That's how I, Zoul Haze, feel about the poet.
The poet is magnificent. His smooth words
and slightly deep voice fit perfectly together
as they speak true words through poetry.

His words spit venom into the crowd,
like a snake biting into it's prey;
and while everyone is shocked by the
diction in his words,
I fall for them. Fall for him.

No one understands him, no one could embrace his soulfullness like i could; and with every word he spoke i feel
myself die a little inside, but yet bringing myself back to life
at the same time?

I could be the one who's words would
fill the empty spaces of his lines, his
poems, his thoughts......

This boy is art. He lives art, breathes art, eats art. He IS art.

He's The Poet, and The Poet is art.
