What makes a mind
want to write down its stuff
Teasing out words
like it can’t get enough
Continually drafting
Annoyingly rough
To produce gut reactions
Quips straight off the cuff
Lines going criss-cross
A mish mashing slough
In a jumbled-up story
Playing blind man’s buff
Taunted by characters
On a shin digging scuff
Entrenched in tale telling
Distracted by bluff
Then gathering dust
In a snow storm of fluff
Settling on pages
Wrung out in a huff
