PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

when my body plays the part of the invalid
my mind drop kicks in and excels
even though physically the situation is sad
mentally for me you know what this spells
poetic verse in its highest concentrated form
far above that of the usual norm
the brain acts on data received and recently stored
this attack with fresh ideas will increase my
writing this week since I'm bound to be perpetually
bored
into someone else' s inactive world I find myself
suddenly having been heedlessly hurled
I am anxious to see familiar patterns as the
possibilities start to roll and unfurl
the endless prospects make my toes positively
curl
so I put out of my mind my terribly tough and
testing situation
and I close my eyes and open my mind to further
boundaries of brilliant creation
perhaps this terrible accident isn't as bad as
it seems
this period of time could be the one that clinches
and cinches my thoughts and feelings into all my
only previously imagined dreams
