A room of steam,
A glass of wine.
That's what it takes,
To make a damned rhyme.
A game of cards,
A misty head.
I need all this,
To write what you read.
Some clearing water,
An aspirin.
What does it require,
To write this poetic-sin.
A tremendous effort,
A heaving mind.
A life rethink,
For a poem to find.
