Well, this was what I used:
I'm not a very good Poet.
Rythm comes to me like air to a fish on dry land--which, by the way, doesn't--.
The only times I know are the ones of light and dark.
What words can't say--won't, but should--my lines can and will.
So as you speak in volume I'll draw, paint, mold
Create, louder than a voice ever could.
Lines curving and spiraling and doing things that words can't.
Don't get me wrong, I like poetry, but I'm not a poet.
I can't paint pictures with my mouth
--Thought that would be a cool talent to have if you were paraplegic--.
I don't make words from pictures, I form pictures from words.
After all, my picture's worth a thousand of them.
