Ideas...

Never sure where to put some of these, so I guess poetry will have to do...

IDEAS…


 


THEY COME AND THEY GO,


SHOULD WRITE THEM DOWN,


BUT I DON’T, SO…


 


LOST THEY BECOME IN THE JUMBLE OF MY MIND,


BETTER TO CARRY A NOTEBOOK OR RECORDER,


FOR SOME ARE MUCH BETTER THAN MY SIGHT OF THE HIND…


 


SOME I CAN START IMMEDIATELY, AS IS THIS,


BUT SOME I CAN’T FATHOM TILL I START TO PUT DOWN,


I SEEM TO THINK BETTER WHEN OUT ON THE ROAD,


OR SAILING WITH RUFUZ & MEETING WITH THE TOADS…


 


ANYTHING IT SEEMS CAN SPARK AN IDEA,


TAKING A RIDE OVER TO THE PIZZERIA,


OR WHILE DRINKING THAT OF SANGRIA,


BUT BETTER THAN ALL WHEN USING MY FAVORITE,


                        PHARMACOPOEIA…


                                                            (ED)

This is the second time I have to agree with Floria on
the font, Ed.
Other than that, this was an excellent piece!
