no fuse can chase away the fear-
words shall appear and be near tomorrow

freedom to choose what i wish...

As I sit in this old, rugged chair, 
And direct my gaze upon this blank paper
I ponder a vastitude of rhymes with great care
Yet, this scheme of notions begins to taper

I stand there, poised, a statue,
holding my paintbrush to my temple;
waiting for the lightbulb of sentiment to wash over me.

Then, like a distant star shooting across the cosmos,
or an injection of adrenaline into an arrhythmic heart;
my thoughts become as clear as a summers day.
