If Ink was blood

If Ink was blood
           And words were gentiles 
           Then like Jesus   
            I would die on the cross 
             Spill my blood 
              And words could be redeemed
               Free.

     If Compositions were a battlefield

            And Sentences were my soldiers 
            I would be captured in 
             Alludes, catch the ride 
               As they journey to freedom

      If Sentences were a stage

          And Words were dancers 
           I would Coach them 
            For Championships
             Eloquently they would
              Worship the Creator.
   
          I would train them for death and life
           For meaning and depth 
            Even in their death the
             Words would never die.

           A wordless prison.

              And enjoy the tide.
