Sitting in the Nuyorican Poet’s Café and popping down a Heineken. All that is poetry has fallen from me. I am void of depth or feeling. I can do no wrong or right. I am an abyss of silent delusion. Overheard the other poets speaking and dancing around subjective interpretations of experience. Feeling a trifle tired and losing interest. Got to buck up and get on with this whole thing.
A moment fading
all feelings have been stifled
false inspiration
it abandons me quickly
to my own device I’m left
