Saturday again and what to do?
Work all week for this day
just hoping to sit around and relax
read a little as I sip my coffee
now I sit instead with dilated eyes
making things to blurry to read
thoughts drifting along nicely
no chance reading getting done
writing not much better for now
but a poem needs to be done
obligation and commitment
even if only to my own self
drive and motivation are hard
difficult to find on days like this
still I must do my best
the show must go on after all
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.
title; drive the muse
