Poem -
FULL TO OVERFLOWING
Words spread βround this boney floor
As if this cranium were unkept
As if I didnβt spend my time
Finding homes for all the words I can
Words for page
Words for screen
Words for clarification
Words for lengthy pontification
Words for play
Words for sorrow
Even wordsΒ
That go on and on
Yet they replicate, multiply
Crowd push and shove
Causing a swelling of the brain
Loss of sleep, loss of friends
Known as the βwordy oneβ
The βloquacious codgerβ
The βpontificator verboseβ
I surrender, relinquish the fight
Maybe if I sit and typeΒ
Speaking the whole time
I will empty this boney orb
Perched so precariously on my shoulders
Quiet?
One can only hope

Great write John. Sometimes I can't get the words down fast enough, if I don't do it right then, they're gone forever.
ββββββOn the other hand I can go weeks without writing anything and struggle for inspiration. I can relate to this write on some levels.

Perhaps being more of a βspewerβ than I writer I donβt often have plans that go astray.
though when caught without words I write about caught without words
(see homage to writers block)
its amazing what I find to say
thanks for reading
