I Am Obsessed With Writing
Trixie is a muse that is less than amusing
I wake up as she feeds the last line of the best poem ever into my mind
I jump out of bed, take care of the body a bit, and bam.
The entire line is gone, even the first word.

My writes are frenzied, furious, purposeless even.
I toss things down onto a page that don’t make sense even to me sometimes.
But I am compelled, obsessed, deranged, cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs now.
Frantically attempting to capture
