Jessica D'Agostino Poet Free verse

What

What if I do not write
anything? 
I already recorded the
date and time, just in
case my pen moved.
What if I did not smoke
this cigarette? 
Would I be sitting here, 
recording dates and times,
and talking about writing? 
What if I never wrote that? 
What about if you think you're 
reading my poetry? 
A random thought, perhaps? 
Or a jinx of the mind.
A labyrinth of questions.
Seeking to amaze you.
