This poet now writes for his edition
struck with a minor affliction
that he is hard pressed for his creation,
while working under sedation...
carving phrases takes some meditation...
mental deliberation.

He beats rhythms on parkside drums
better then careless living in slums,
stories shouted from upper floors
are caught by youth just outdoors.

Armed with coffee mug in hand
curious feelers, extending wordy strands
going towards lyrics for neighbourhood bands;
To catch the etherial thoughts on the run,
golden stories he has spun.
using wordy puns

While the room fans circulates the air
and season cycles are constantly there,
his book is rarely bare
and the greater public will stare...
the artist's canvas may be white
but his words do take on flight.
