Wisdom’s Seed?

Drawn to pen my hand is braced,
While through my head my thoughts are traced.
It’s in my blood, and now I know,
In written words these thoughts must flow.

It’s not by choice, I always find,
That words must tumble from my mind.
Then place themselves, with pen and ink,
On paper, as these words I think.

I know this poetry’s from my muse,
I’m just the one, it chose to choose.
I rarely know what it will say,
Until it writes words down this way.

Though I’ve no time to play this game,
I have to write, my urge to tame.
It knows it has me in its trap,
An addict now, I can’t turn back.

If this is just a ‘mind disease’,
A ‘fix’ I need to give me ease,
Then why I ask, did it choose me.
Is there a cure will set me free?

But sometimes when I rest my pen,
I know that what I’ve written then,
Are words that echo in my head,
That really needed to be said.

And so I simply write things down,
I’m just the medium thought has found.
And at these times I share my muse,
For me and all the world to use.

It’s then I know a poets lot,
Is just to throw things in the pot.
For all to see in what they read
Either trash, or wisdoms seed.

The moment created this second, is a moment that's going to last.
It lives the full spectrum of time, the future, the present and past.
