My favorite label
Is “amateur”–
A little primative
Untamed, unashamed
A naive, young mother
With only my heart as guide
And love flowing through me
Undammed
An enthralled artist
With no goals, no mentors
Only a deep feral urge
To create with my hands
A raw, coarse poet
With no indoctrination
Of meter or rhyme
Only the need
To give a voice to my
My soul
Simple and naked
Dancing with instinct
Immune to critique
When I’m true to “the call”
