Get those
 initial thoughts 
down
 a.s.a.p.
That we thought
 were so brilliant 
and flowing
Riding high on 
our cleverness
Then we sleep
In our beds
Who's  reading
And responding
As we saw zzz's
Then we get up
and check
No response 
So we visit again
That poem that
Didn't quite cut it
As we read 
We think
How could I write 
This crap
I can't even
Understand this
I wasn't in
My right mind
Better pull my 
sleeves up
Click my pen
And restructure
This one again
Then they'll 
Get it
