Of poems in my mind swirl a bevy,
As caffeine surges over grey levee;
My heart pounds ever faster,
Craft rushes t'ward disaster;
My wayfinding won't help w/ head heavy

Oh I know the feeling! Most nights the last 10 days, the grey levee has been a ponderous abyss. 😀

Too inspired ✔️✔️

You always use two words as title of your poem David. And those two words contrasts sometimes.
Well, Lokesh, sometimes it’s two words, and sometimes it’s two phrases. And sometimes they contrast with one another, and sometimes they do not 😀
Yes.😃
You’re an expert David.
You’re very sweet, Lokesh. Thank you.
You have a beautiful heart David.❤️
😳
You get very emotional when you talk about your papa and your community.
Thank you for noticing, Lokesh.
Now I’m curious to know what a poetry disaster would actually look like.
well, JYP, unfortunately for you, I took a nap today so you may have to wait on that a while longer 😉
I feel like this begs the question of what would constitute a poetry disaster. Ruining the rhyme scheme? Miscounted syllables? Writing an essay??
You might be overthinking this 😉
Sometimes the ideas can be like a storm, and it’s difficult to make sense of the chaos. I’ve found papers where I scribbled notes in a flurry. It’s neat to look at, with ordinary eyes, to those outpourings of thoughts.
YES! That is so relatable to me, Dave.

Oh, I can relate!☕☕☕☕☕☕
😄 🧸 😄
👍Cheers
As someone who’s historically done all my best writing at night (sometimes very late at night), I can relate!
Thank you, EIP❣️

I’m decaffeinated but I remember this feeling! I see it in my husband as he waits for the coffee to enter his blood stream and hit his cerebral cortex…
☕ + 🧠 = 📜
We’re all tossing on those ever changing seas. Or our brains are anyway. I’m lost without caffeine myself. (K)
me too; but sometimes it’s not enough – and I simply need to take a nap.
I’ve been missing my naps lately. Hopefully they will return.
I stay clear of caffeine. I believe I have mentioned many times, ‘I am hyper as it is, any more and they will have to peel me off the ceiling.”😊
LOL
Really nice writing – I was hyper as a child but then I had to be – not so much any more and I love my caffeine – great post, hugs, Joni
💛 Thanks so much, Joni 💛
My pleasure. You are so welcome David. Love ❤️ to you and your family. Joni
