Little words in my Seamus Heaney book
Handwritten in the margins...
I had thought you kindred spirit
When you had said, "Poetry is the expression of Say."
But, upon reading the ancient cursive--
Which I both read and write--
It says, "The expression of Self."
Then I say, I do not write poetry but something new.
