Side Note

Side Note.

My head is full of words.

Words of you and for you

The old and the few

I sing them

Paint and spit them

Across this paper

Ignoring grammar and

Spelling 

My head is screaming

It's yelling

Words of stories it's telling

Listen

Read 

Let pretend my words

Are your friend

Blessings and bandages

To patch the holes that

Need filling

Let my words 

be your healing.
