2011 Poem A Day Challenge - Day 4
For today's prompt, pick a type of person and write a poem about him or her.
Since I have been hearing from a lot of my film making friends today, here is my poetic look at...
"The Director"
Each person is born to a vision
Except the Director
For they are borne to be
Master and slave to the world of visions
There is no angle that to them would be
Alien
Confusing
Intimidating
They have developed a unique blend of
Awareness
Instincts
Technique
And there is no story that cannot be
Understood
Approached
Shared
They have the means to create anything
Where there exists nothing at all
They are able to become the sound and vision
And just as easily both the arrow and the target
In a world where a dream can often die
They weave dreams in legion
And touch so many that no matter what
This world will never lose its way

Wow!! That's really cool. I love the stanzas with the three-word descriptors. Very director-like.
