Jan 2010
Gleefully, with fingers flying fast
she places her eloquent words
down on the page, emptying her head
The reader, with awed eyes
laps up the words
She utters a cry of praise,
for the writer's edible thoughts.

The writer lies dead.
The reader, completed.
For the writer has relinquished her
brain to the reader.
For my most avid reader, Hannah. :)
She's has picked my brain on many occasions and forces me to continue writing,
even when my ideas disappear.
