Mediocrity

I've spent my whole life writing these words

Please don't say they're nice.

I want my words

To shake up the world,

To knock you off your feet.

I want the fire in me

To consume you.

To grab you by the neck

And drown you with me.

I want you to walk up

The flight of words

And peer over the edge,

To get the view from my head.

I want to envelope you

With these words

And mail you to another place.
