"How I Write Poetry" (The Secrets Out)
In my ruby red shoes I click my heals
Take out my golden pen
Through transcendental meditation raise my heart rate up
Placing my head in a cosmic spin
Conjure up a darkened mood
Then brighten it up a bit
Oh, I almost forgot for luck
I go outside and spit
With a touch of genius (I don't mind saying)
I lay down my first
AMAZING
line
Pour over it stroke by brilliant stroke
Then erase it half a dozen times
As I analyze my finished gem
Dissecting it line by enticing line
This time I'm sure like every time before
Another masterpiece is mine
Then I noticed that one misplaced word
That changes everything I had to say
I think to myself...ahhh, "what the heck"
And I post it anyway
All in jest my friends...all in jest
