Poetry

[Plenum]

my creative function
compels me
to speak and to write
in the ways that I do

I do the things that I do
not by habit nor choice
nor by compulsion of an external kind

I do
because I am
what I am
like a flower, bee, or tesselated rose petal



when I sing, I sing
when I dance, I dance
when I speak, I speak
and when I sit, I am seated

do you know what I am?
I am a man with a can
of pretty little beans
who plants in the field of the universe

I go
to where I am called
I sit
where I like to sit

I am seated like a man
A man with a can
