Incision

I need an incision...
I need my pen to be my scalpel and
Open up my soul,
Doing heart surgery to
Transmit the blockage in my heart
To the page by its ink.
After it clears the
Emotional arteries,
Its partner,
The music would have to
Sew it up,
Sealing in the healing
For my strength and life.
With their medicated and holistic approach,
When the two scrub in and work their magic,
It's like I'm under...
Not anesthesia, cuz that's not conscious.
Maybe I'm over...
Cuz I'm even more aware, more alive,
More awake than when I'm not in surgery.
So like Anthony Hamilton and Chris Brown,
Don't wake me up,
Cuz this reality is better than any
Dream of life that I could think to have.
Let me be free in my art
So that life dances the way
My soul does whenever I'm on
Their operating table....
