Creativity, It’s like lightning. I’m told it doesn’t strike in the same place twice, But it strikes me over, And over, And over. In the dark of midnight, In the in between, It has no sense of time. It cares not about my tired mind. The words like pounding rain, Bouncing around my skull. I cannot shut it off, I cannot silence it. They waver like a scream in my throat, Building, And I must release it.
