In my inward in thought times
My soulful think sing comes in rhymes
Flowing easily in to el why lines
Morsels snared on slant fork tines

Incredulously
I curse my failing memory
It fell together so perfectly
Away from paper (naturally)
Now I sit uncomfortably
The page facing me confrontationally
The cursor tapping its foot impatiently

smiling here....as I remember how in the half awake state poems would come to me just before I drifted off or as I was waking.... and then when I went to capture them, the meter was wrong, or the words clumsy, the point obfuscated...

and that cursor, tapping its foot impatiently was always an source of irritation and dread...

Don't you just hate that?   Think of all the good ones that got away.....

(chuckling) in my case I try to think of it as all the poetry which escaped the mangle of my mind.... for the betterment of all I might add....
