NOUVEAU

                    Let's evaluate this word.
                    I could not sleep much last night,
                    so I laid awake thinking about my
                    tenacity in writing.
                    I think that my need to write is 
                    like having a monkey on my back.
                    To congregate verbs, adjectives,etc, 
                    is my cocaine. 
                    The only determent from my obsession
                    is my comment to be respondent to
                    sometime grievous moments in my life.
                    However, like the sun vanishes the night,
                    and the night drowns the sun, these 
                    horrific moments in life do past, and
                    the birth from consistency is inconsistency.
                    I collectively gather up those few peaceful 
                    moments in between and melt away into
                    my encephalon and create with no real
                    worries of someone liking what I write,
                    but , it is always nice to know that they do.
