Writing (Repost)

My writing season on the way This poem the number 2 most viewd poem of the 700 plus I have posted

Writing just an outlet 

for me

good therapy for 

my PTSD

not out to save or

convert the world

Never use it to pursue or woo

some special woman or girl

Writing just something to

relax my mind

Controversey for controversey sake

I do decline

Sitting in my little corner

of the world

not bothering anyone what

I prefer

Like watching words and lines

coming together

Writing just a lil relaxin time

to spin a rhyme

Listening too Law of The Land Temptations Great LP titled Masterpiece

and listening to my favorite combo group boss with the funk boss with the ballads bad with the RNB Them Isley guys listening to Livin in the life from the LP Go For Your Guns Isley Brothers

New Notebook Tablet (Pen n Paper Kind)

Done went and bought a 2026

Fall/Winter writing tablet

Muse and I again gettin together

with this writing Hobby habit

Not quite Fall yet but startin to

reach for that blanket early morning

More words for me to pull out the air

Muse pokes me during this time

always knows what he she it is doing

Get into writing deep when it is cold

heater jumpin on and off cold dark early outside

it does somethin to the Soul like get to writing

got your bills straight medications in order

time to flow

its writing time your present goal

Sports on TV cold outside warm inside

music always a going 

Writing nursing that mind just

for a short time

Was listening to Poetry Man by Phoebe Snow while writing this Queen Latifa did it much later lil more jazzy a really good singer her first CD both rea...
