An inch or two
Just about
A peek over the rim
To the mass inside
Almost there

A void of space for the viewing and interact
Riches, happieness, success, even love
Almost there

I can almost see,
As I continue to strain
Blood shot
Pratice and rehearse
Again and again

Like addiction
Misunderstood
Drive and Im blind
Poverty

The best almost
Lightly frizzled mind
A dork inside
And yet I continue to try

No support and they tell me to quit
Almost sad
I cant stop
Like a prison of motivation
And with a tear to prove this

Its worse than nicotine or heroin
Slave to my own creation
As wretched as it is
Truly a work in progress
On and on forever

a trickle of music from a well
let it spill and roar like hell!

Hey, my friend, when that poetic fire burns, you just have to go for it, and it IS an addiction!!!!  Glad you're here...~S~

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~S~
