Note: In Young Adult Literature we had an assignment to do a list poem.. so I decided to do one on inspiration. No, it doesn't rhyme.. and it has no rhythm either. Poetry isn't my thing. I just thought this one was kind of fun to do.

Inspiration

Calling at 3 in the morning, insistant "Pay attention to me!"
Then again at 3:30 . . .
And at 4:00 . . .
Then of course in the middle of the class . .
In the middle of a test in class, no less
A thousand ideas flood you all at once,
Then the spickett is shut and there is only
the occasional

drip

drip

of thought

beginning and ends, no middles, of course
plots by the jillians or none at all,
constant voices, characters crying for attention
"Use me!"

    "No! Me!"

Bickerbicker, chitterchat,
No peace at all!

What would I do without them?
Die of boredom probably.
