Figure It Out

Time has come For me to put paper to pen, Or is it pen to paper? If I put paper to pen Is it on top or down below? If I put pen to paper Which direction does it go? I opt for the one Where I sit down to write, Not the one Where I stand on my head all night. If I can't figure this out real soon I fear my poetic days are doomed. Looks like there's only one way to win I'll drag out my typewriter And start over again.
