Eloquency

Eloquency

Eloquency – I curse thee!
I curse that thou has bestowed upon me
The wit and tongue
To pull forth words and spin them into tales,
All light and air and fancy.
It is quite a burden to bear,
To be a voice of my generation
And to herald the futility,
And grandness, of life.
And yet…I think I’d rather have thou within me,
Beating still within my breast,
Yearning to be free.
For without thee, eloquency,
I wouldn’t be replete with me.
