As the Cellar Door squeaks

As the Cellar Door squeaks

Literature isn't a game.
..And it’s not easy.
It isn't simple, It’s very difficult.

Sifting threw lines, 
Spending precious time,
Making words mingle.
Life is suppose to give you wrinkles.

I Wanna be better.    
Even though  I’m not bad. 
I only drink the water,
and live off the land.  
It’s hard to be happy 
When so many are sad.
This world is drowning in greed.
And I’m a man who only takes 
what I need.

Ask what you will.
I’ll tell.., if I wish.
Beg what you want.
I’ll give...if I can.

Take at risk,
Some tainted, Amidst.

Beware what’s to come.
You wont know..
Till it’s centre and front.

Hold on strong..
Strong as you can.
The wind will blow it..
right out of your hand.

You learn the rules on the road.
And the blues from the dove.

Its out of the box.

And making the walls fall.

Out of this world, 
then make the stars come down.

Daydream fears,
And a bucket of tears.
One more dare and
No more cares.
Have another lyric,
Il be there.
Won’t be long,
I’ll be stripped bare.

II 
It’s not a brain washing machine,
Or demanding your beliefs,
On any one who opens the cellar door.

Merely there for all to adore.
Any one who wishes to absorb.

A simple widget provokes to think.
Any thing around could be a link.
Adds to the vibe, lyric or speech.

Symbolisms are touchy
Some times you get lucky,
Multiple minds 
at the the same place,
In the same time.
Words are like munchies.

Some laughing, some crying, 
Some living, some dying,
Some loving,
Some criticizing.

“As the cellar door squeaks..
The ink paints the portrait and
The pen profoundly speaks”.

A good poet can make there thoughts a flavour.
A great poet can put everyone else’s
On paper.

Excellent, Edward! Cellar doors open and close to a subterranean depth, reminiscent of the soul!

Oh didn’t see your ? dreamer  Lol .. I didnt intend on making it song like but sure if it sounds that way then that’s ok .. I was basically writing around one line that I had wrote “as the cellar door squeaks .. the ink paints and the pen speaks” I tryed to use phoneoshtetics as much as possible because of the reference to “ cellar door “ 
just simply admiring literature

Hello Edward...

Cellar Doors and me don't get along very well...

If my Mother were alive she would tell you the same and how I almost gave her a heart attack when I was a little over one year old...

My Brothers called me amazing and my Mother told them not to encourage me...

It's been disastrous at times for me after that but, fortunately no broken bones...

Just a couple of hard whacks on my head...

?

Awesome write!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...
