To drown these thoughts ugly
I count how I love thee
All clowned and just clumsy
And hound you uncontrollably
The quill, she get thirsty
To kill, without mercy
Her well of red bursty
To spill with cunning poetry
Sometimes -- when I'm sleepin'
The rhymes, they come creepin'
My radar's gone beepin'
And lines come seepin' happily
I been gone -- but the mission's
Still on, and I'm wishin'
This song is convincin' you
It ain't the last of me
I bent crazy - my eyes
They went hazy - I tried
But got lazy - the tide
Was overpowerin'
I fell bushed, and unsteady
I shushed, and got ready
for pushin' up daisies
Laid down and threw the towel in
But I'm goin' -- no fear when
I'm Poe-in' Shakespearin'
The flow that you're hearin's
Just a troubador
You want sexy - I'm on it
I'll erect thee a sonnet
And hit every component
Until you beg for more
- Poet
