Graham Eakin Poet Rhyme

Its Just My Current Situation, So Theres No Title.

Here I sit at home at night
Drinking beer while nothing seems right.
I listen to the same French song
This has been going on much too long.

With poetry I feel that I begin nearly
To see some things a little more clearly
My mind and the page are a powerful fusion
Or perhaps they are no more than a common illusion

I feel my path is no longer pure
But as to why I'm not so sure.
So I feel all that I do now is a sin.
But still, I long for my life to begin…

Sharon Tideswell July 1, 2010 at 10:21 AM Hi Graham, alcohol and music, a lethal combination for me, I do far too much thinking. Love that line - 'my mind and the page are a powerful fusion'. I be sure to look up that song. (Just one edit if you don't mind me saying - im / I'm) Enjoyed the read, thanks ~ Sharon :)
