This Morning

here I am this morning sitting at a table meant for card play but being used as a desk all alone in my bedroom I try to start writing but can't think of what to say I feel a bit grotesque like I just crawled out of a tomb should I write about the nightmare which woke me? or the dead squirrel I saw on my way to get caffeine? trying not to pout over a brief lack of creativity making an effort to claw at any creative gene so here I am this morning suddenly wanting to play poker I should be seriously writing but I'd rather be a joker

You should do what makes you feel good. Others opinions are always welcome,and to certain people they are needed. I say let your intuition tell you. Great job on the poem BTW. I've read alot of your works and very interested in seeing what else is on your mind. ..... KEEP on Writing!

I'd think you a Queen. :) We've all had these mornings or these days but it seems that something always appears on the page no matter what hand we are holding. Really nice Christy.
