i am a poet

I am dactylic
I am stressed
unstressed unstressed
but mostly stressed

I am dimeter
two feet to guide me
I march a narrow line
I walk a short plank

I am feminine
full lips and slightly broken
my hands often cold, I create friction
I rhyme two syllables
and read controversial fiction

I am dark and slow
I am iambs and anapests
I rise and fall like ocean tides

I am four dimensions
I am experience and knowledge
I am imagination and I am
…forgetful

I am a poet
