How I Write


Step one
I get bored
Drift away from the ward
Of my body or my brain
Whichever seems to my gain
 
Step two
Materializing a pen and paper
Words appear like smoke from the mouth of a smoker
First idea that appears from the whirl
Is written into the poetic world
 
Step three
I share with thoughts that are secondary
Having others read reflections from a mind unseen
Popularity of the poem aside I post from my bedside
Then I let it spread as it's read with the worlds eye
