A Poem by Liz Johnston

Inside

Writing to get inside.

Inside the grief,

Inside the panic, and

Inside the joy.

Writing in short paragraphs,

Single words, and

Individual technique.

Simply.

Open

To unexpressed joy

Untapped creativity

Unearthed story lines

Unimagined beauty

Uncomplicated structure

Untouched emotions

 

-Liz Johnston
