Printing Labels for Unlabeled Minds
Like us all,
he was good at naming things,
trees, minerals, the anatomy of rabbits,
butterflies and all things
he saw or imagined he saw.
Later he had an epiphany,

Self Publishing
Read I what he published;
The sound ideas relished'
"When one is the vanquished
A thing is relinquished

today it's on the fritz.
I was in a frenzy perked
spewing words lined in poetic blitz.
Fingers slid along the keys
and every word was good indeed
but the final stall was a tease
and the printer appeared deceased.
I struggled with direction
