Light the match.
This itching in my fingers
To write
To touch these keys
In such a fluid beat
Or hold the pencil, this day's special treat
They call it writer's block
When you know not what to write
That the only way to cure it
Is to write
So that the lonely match
Will succeed in being lit
As I click, click, click these keys
I light the match within my brain
To tell my fingertips the words
That they may flow out like a chain
Continuous and changing
Light yet clever
Every letter close ranging
The fire is now burning
Words so steadily churning
The wheels in my head are turning
Keys of the keyboard clicking
Pit-patter pit-patter pit-patter-pat
Just like the sound horse hooves upon cement
I am at peace here as I write this content
Pit-patter pit-patter pit-patterpat
