ABOUT MICHELINE WILLIAMS

 

" Think with an open mind, believing that everything is limitless.

Believe we rise as one and fall as a whole. We think as one and discuss as a group."

-Micheline Williams-

Poetry is my life I started writing when i was eight years old.The first poem I've ever written was titled secrets. I remember that i always thought that poetry had to rhyme and was nothing but a story. I continued writing wnd reading poetry and as i became of age iI noticed that not all poetry has to rhyme or it could be about anything that you want it to be about. The paper is your canvas, your penicl is is your paint brush and your thoughts written is your art.

 

I won't be conditioned to fit your design
I follow a path that's inherently mine
on a whim I may wax, when you wish me to wane
and when you've given in, my voice will remain

I won't be relegated to a silent tomb
my survival is guaranteed, I am the womb
from which changes are born, both great and small
the beginning of the end of old ways that must fall

While bureaucracy tends to be feathered with fluff
I will challenge red tape crying "We've had enough"
laminations that cover the truth removed quick
I have no time to ramble, I'm on a short wick

At the service of all who have thoughts to convey
I am freedom of speech, and I will have my say
