My Writing Lifestyle

If an inspiration comes to me in a dream
or thought, I rise to the occassion, and write about it anytime;
it may be at 3:00am, burning the night oil;
the neighbours' lights are normally off. An odd person I'm perceived
to be; awake at wrong hours. I also talk alot to myself in the mirror;
editing and re-editing verses that are stuck in my mind.

"An asylum is the best abode for you", they tell me. A warm smile
and more poems is my reply.
