I read a poem,
Not just read,
But really read,
Only to be blown away
By the power it evokes.
I repeated the process over and over
Just to harness the power,
Only to be blown away
Further each time.
I wanted this power myself,
I wanted to steal this power,
I wanted to use it on others,
I wanted to bend everyone to my will.
Stealing it wasn't the answer,
For attempting it always repelled me,
Sent me several miles away,
So I relinquished that desire.
I realized I didn't have to steal
To have the same poetic power
Because it lied within me all along.
By coming to that realization,
I tapped into my inner power,
Produced poems worthy for the world.
I may had scratched the surface,
But my progress was remarkable.
