I watch the curling smoke rising from my cigarette my mind’s flat broke my creative spirit begins to fret sipping my hot coffee listening to the cold rain wishing something would inspire me and end this poet’s strain I start jotting down words and random gibberish phrases most no one’s ever heard extracted from my mind’s hazes but I really need to write something that’s worth reading locked in a brutal fight come on, pen start bleeding!

Your pen it seems is never at a loss for something creative and so worth reading. Your poems are always something I look forward to.
