Artist- a poem
I am writer
No, I'm more then that
I am a author
No, i 'm more then that

I am a creator of worlds
A mixer of characters
One who takes the symbols of language and turn into tale of our universe
That what I am

I am a rhymester
No ,I am more then that
I am a poet
No ,I a more then that

I am a weaver of words
Who put feelings and emotions into verse
I am mixer of literary texture
One that captures my feeling ,
How I'm living
And put those thing to rhythm
That's what I am

I am an actor
No, I'm more then that
I am a thespian
No, I am more then that

I am person who understands emotions
Who inmates life
Who look into soul of a character and brings them to life
I am person
That can take a playwright line
And deliver it with feeling and take the character's life in stride
That what I am

I am a artist
That is what I am!
