Jeff Connelly Poet I do not know?

To Be Frank

am i
right
that the
writing rite
for those of who
have partaken in it

more 
than
once

have
their
own way
even safe to
say a particular 
personal but not always 

necessarily
initiationally
immatating

that same
something
that caused an
equal but opposite
reaction the first time a 
synapse sparked pleasurably

then a minute
but in no time
now minutely

needing
nothing
even simple
things like using
the same pen again
or blowing a ram's horn

in truth
if truth
be told

you blame
your muse
but i never have
to for through today's
technology an email will do

if she says she's 
feeling lazy then
i with poem paint

will drip in
a thought
of time clocks
melting over some 
tree limbs and then finish 
by hanging this on a tired wall

where it will 
be for me to
find perhaps

looking from a
bove at what is
in the upper west side of 
Manhattan's Guggenheim but
hardly being a labyrinth since it is
circular yet was designed by Lloyd Wright
