Brain Farts

Here I sit, the screen is blank Nothing is coming to mind I search and search my tiny brain For a theme of any kind Nothing doing, my brain is numb It's happened to me before When it happens panic takes over I pace up and down the floor Wait a minute something's coming A brain fart is on it's way I know the feeling all too well Cataclysmic, I'd have to say I frantically type as verses flow Don't stop me I'm in the zone It's a weird creative frenzy I'm in My brain is functioning all on my own As words begin to fill the screen Can't believe what my eyes do see A poem appears just like bloody magic And it's signed by little old me Now tell me how this happens I beg This brain fart phenomenon Wish I could really get control of it It's appears and then it's gone! © Jack Ellison 2014

At least there's no foul odour attached to these! But there's sure a lot of grunting! LOL
