I Am
I am the builder of books
the pillager of paragraphs
the stalker of sentences
like a serial killer i stock
my next victim named inspiration
once it is caught
I suck the life-force out of it
like a vampire, I usually
compost at night
the darkness my passion
the madness my rhyme
Narcissistic notes, my rhythm
I view those around me like a
stalker, in a creative carnal
desire, writing them,
molding, creating, using them
in tales told, then throwing them
Away
Away, as quickly as my pen
dashes, dangerously across the page
to create, the Genesis of this poem
the Beginning, the End
