The way that I write poetry I don't give it too much time To sit and stew over what it should do I just toss it out onto the line
As there's another one soon to come And it'll just be in the way Where my mind seems to rhyme all of the time With all that it has to say
I write it down, brush it off Polish is a thing of the past If I let it sit around, here and there there about It loses the thoughts it needed to grasp
I try not to go intellectual As intellectually doesn't work for me If your looking for prime examples Just read my poetry
I write it out fast and furious Whatever's on my mind at the time And if you're the least bit courious You can read what I think in rhyme
As I toss it out onto the line...
I'm in a poetry group and most of the guys there will anguish over their poetry for months on end until they feel it's perfect. Then anguish over it after that. Me...I write it down, wipe it's **** then send it out!
