I have reference books
my muse Trixie does not allow us to have writers block
or even writers slow down or writers caution
our words jump onto a page easily and quickly
where do they come from? I have reference books
two thesauruses, a dictionary, and scientific facts for kids
I open them up if I need a starting out point
begin jotting down words or ideas that I like
pretty soon they form a poem
one poem begets another poem and another
pretty soon I have ten poems,
this is in a twenty-seven minute period
I can almost always write ten in twenty-seven minutes
