Fill The Margins Poem by Scott McQueen

Fill The Margins



What to do
With all this space
'Tis set in ink
I can't erase

I can't go back
I can't move on
To leave it here
Would seem so wrong

Maybe I'm a madman
Maybe I'm insane
But to leave this page blank
Would reap for me much pain

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I'm somewhat obsessive compulsive and noticed, for the first time, the amount of space left over in the journal in which I first draft my poems. When I say that I can't erase, I mean that I only have one attempt to make the write poem to fill the small margins. If I get it wrong or make a mistake, I can't erase it, whcih would be even more enraging.
