A Seicinque form poem


My words erase and scrape,
Visions of insight.
Let all words take flight;
Scatter aloft, light.

I paint a word landscape,
Visions of insight.
Let all words take flight
In colors tonight.

Letters fall and escape
Visions of insight.
Let all words take flight;
Leave my blank page white.

Magic muse sculpts to shape
Visions of insight.
Let all words take flight;
Dance high, muse delight.
