Slave To the Pen

Slave To The Pen. . An obedient driven slave to the pen With an overactive fertile mind Words overflowing from the abundant Fountain of my heart with little thought Words weaved together in poetic line . Inspiration drawn From the rich tapestry of life Ink spilled Within the midst of a sleepless night . My sweet affliction And my all consuming addiction My mistress my life My therapy That makes more inclined To understand the world People And myself. . Peter Dome©2020.
