This is fun, this is enjoyable
Mental *******
Sometimes ( rarely )
I come all over the page
But you don't notice
Or perhaps you do ?
Who knows ?
Who cares ?
Not me, I'm just freewheeling
Allowing myself to open
My mental encyclopedia
Giving it a little air
Seeing my most private
Thoughts, hopes, desires
Fears and dreams
Written out on the page
Can be a very liberating
Experience
It can also be pretty depressing
At times
But mostly I enjoy this SO much
It's cleansing
I can't understand why
Everyone doesn't do it
Miners, labourers, housewives
Thieves, prostitutes, dealers
Pimps, factory workers
Everyone
Just think of the literature
We could have
Instead of the mainly
Over-academic, limp
Tired rantings
That are classed as
The poetry of the ages
Just think of it !
It's a thought that
Makes me dizzy
What will YOU write ?
