DISTURBING THE PEN what creeps in? insanity of sorts, leaking in, instead of out. it dribbles out, like drool or frothing foam. it comes from the inner sanctum, barely a stream, scissors snip away at contentions, invention of hate. bitterness and cacophony invades. you toss and turn, laughing. like a crazy fool, do not turn over and look at the underside. drip, drop, drip, on the roof of your head. clear your mind and begin again, putting pen to paper, even bend and fly that plane. ramblings are... just that. Conjure up a complete thought. i see you hiding in the corner, cobwebs like sticky curtains. madness laughs uproariously. how insane you look when humor beds your pen. friction of match complains, as a scintilla of flame recognizes your waning brain. 9/20/2017

This is charming! I especially love, "cobwebs like sticky curtains". And to think all this time my pen has been drooling!
