An original piece, or, whatever

I write an original piece.
I make a study of science.
My blood flows onto the sheet of paper
and I say, ‘look, in here are red blood cells
this flows in my body whole,
and it needs oxygen.
We need oxygen.
And we are in a room of smog
thwarted;
or laughing on laughing gas’.
Or,
sometimes I say
‘I am here at the top of a hill
the sky is so clear
the air is so lovely
and I am happy’.

And you say
‘whatever…
yea….
that’s so personal…’

What?!
Should I just take some paints
And draw you some still-life landscape
So that you can say
‘Oh,
yea!
I’ve been there!’
