Poets sculpt meaning from less than thin air

I disseminate each day
As a good poet should
By attaching words to thoughts,
Dying each invisible thought that passes through my mind with color,
With words,
For all to see,
All to feel,
All to read.
The worth of these thoughts may in fact be zero
As thoughts themselves weigh nothing
Therefore, poetry is the art of applying dye to air
To the human illusion in which we place so much care
