Poem 1 of 7 in 7 - Alive

I am 
the powerful voice of the past
gathering in a storm at the back of my throat
ready to belch out the present
which has been trapped in a flutter
on the tip of my tongue

I am 
the ashy skin wrapped vagabond
never looked that
ready to lash out 
just to fill my soul again

I am 
the screaming child of innocence
left unattended
in the wastebaskets of a loveless home

I am
the wingless bird
still unafraid of flight

I am 
all manners of life

I am I am Alive
