to quote
the infamous
character
Forrest Gump
''from that day on
if I was going anywhere
I was running''
why well who can tell
for no particular reason
a poet may have a similar epitome moment
''if I was going anywhere I was writing''
you might not know it
you might not think it
you might not see it
but I was writing
there might have been long gaps
no posting but I was writing
in my head in my head I was writing
I was writing
poems were always in the head
I may not have always written them out
I may have let a thousand or more go but I was writing
write write write write write...
poems written in the head
you cannot read
but I was writing
poems written in the head
you cannot access
but I was writing
poems written in the head
you cannot know
but I was writing
writing poems I was
running running
against the wind
writing poems I was
running running
against time
writing poems I was
running running
against eternity
to leave but a few short thoughts
behind for no particular reason
to leave
but a few
short thoughts
behind
for no
particular reason
you might not know it
you might not think it
you might not see it
but I was writing... I was writing
