The next words that I write could go sweet or go sour
They could last for mere minutes or go on for an hour
There's a power I have when I start to create
It can be somewhat awful or truly be great
I try to pick words so a picture they paint
Sometimes there is color and sometimes there ain't
I hope what I write, in the end, makes you feel
Like a diner who's about, to consume a great meal
If you're happy and full when you leave from my table
Then I'll continue to write, as long as I'm able!
This is what happens when I get no sleep!
