First Cut The Deepest

I used the language to my own end,
  never respecting rules or laws

I wrote what seemed the shortest path,
  between feelings and my thoughts

I thumbed my nose at sage advice,
  knowing what I wrote was true

The first cut then-the first cut now,
  the deepest through and through

(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2017)
