It is a sickness.
Words pour from me
Truth and fantasy
Since a child.
I have a writing disorder.
People run for fear I'll share.
When in the fever, it spills from me
on napkins and paper bags.
It surrounds me.
It drowns me.
The disorder seizes me.
Words written in lost notebooks
long forgotten.
The writings disappear, but the sickness
never goes.
Uncontrollably, as green in May,
words spread over me.
