Maybe I should be a poet

Maybe I should be a poet


Really,
Maybe I should be a poet.

To say what I want to say,
To hear what I never expected to hear.

I remember reading and writing,
about the poems and novels,
of which the titles and the contents
I can't even recall.

Here I am,
reading, and writing,
about what some professionals say about
what other professionals have achieved.

About optics, physics, materials, biology
and so on.

Questions arise,
how are we to know
how good they are?
