While Waiting

While waiting

While I was waiting for the poem, I was going to write
to show up but I can`t find the right words
starting the process, I have amused myself by
writing two smaller things. I look at my nails 
they are too long but clean mainly because I do 
the washing up after lunch by hand or rather
two hands I have never heard of a one-armed dishwasher.
Thought of the German philosopher who said
that God was dead, I ask; How can something not
Born be dead? The great poem I was going to write
is in hiding looking at the screen didn`t help,
so it will have to wait and soon it will be morning.

Who needs a Ouija Board when one has a computer screen - even a touch screen - ? How else can one amuse a muse? Aloha! Rico
