Modern Dickinsons

Poetry
has alluded me-
the times themselves are fighting
the creativity of modern Dickinsons
like we are the tracks on a road meant to be refurbished.
Despite this resentment I boil within me
I cannot strike away this dyer need for poetry
am I delusional in my delusions?
My reality is begging for words of clarity
so I clarify the words through poetry
but the words I write are no thing for the world to speak
if the world rather spend nights in daylight
and thoughts in AI mindsets.
I am a passion to be reckoned with
but no one is here to reckon but me.
Perhaps that is how poetry should be.
