In No Big Perception

In no big perception
I want to string sounds together
and nowhere I want to force words
to construct something artificial

but my verses must be natural with something
from the heart and knowledge coming together
where everyone that reads them
can live along with them; can have an own discovery

and even my own memories
have got to have something universal,
piercing past the superficial,
letting another realization, place or world unfold

being totally free from copying or envy,
in a type of unique art.
