I just want to write
That feeling that puts pressure against my heart
its satisfying feeling as I unload from finish to start
no matter what the order of events
I just want to write
the content of which I may record
may have no substance or but one word
no matter the subject
I just want to write
encumbrances concoct a formulating plan
to ruin my image and to suffocate it can
no matter the trial
I just want to write
infusing my thoughts with clouded judgment
as I go on overdrive and succumb to it
no matter the capacity of my thoughts
I just want to write
of flowers and peddlers of hair and of shoes
of elders and cities to ease or amuse
no matter the outcome
I just want to write
The utter excitement I get from a blank page
you’d think i’d met the Presidents maids
The mystery it brings to life with its ink
I just want to write i’d say and you’d think
