By Tamesha S. Hawkins
Writing is breath…
Catharsis wrapped in self-reliance and possibility
Write because it doesn’t make since not to
It is adjuvant in the development in personhood
Without the written word
The body lies on a bed of discontentment
Rigor mortis in thoughts
Blood siphoned
The ink that kept everything flowing
Without the lingual quill
Nothing moves forward
Writing is breath…
Because when you give a girl a pen
You make an honest woman out of her
Breathing honesty with every page
Creating the mogul, maverick, the majestic
Many solutions
Many powers
Many things needed to keep consciousness spinning on its axis
Writing is breath…
The pulse for the beating heart
The tissues used to coddle muscles
Swaddle the capillaries not to be vain
Throbbing with creativity
Writing births new ideas
New beginnings
New essences from scratch
Without it
Nothing moves forward!
