How I Write Poems

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.

Napkin Poem

Music in. The world out. Treated like a "rock star". And actually trying to sing. I feel like sleeping. But that just isn't happening. But this is what I enjoy. Writing on a napkin.

A Small Glass Jar

Life In Words

To the poet words are more akin to blood, For without them he cannot become the man he should.
