Mine
By Mark Sherrick

I need to go back to the way things were
when I could write a poem at the drop of a hat
like back during my sophmore year when I
first took a poetry class and had to write
and I came up with  all kinds of crazy
poetry about anything and everything, but 
after a while I think I wrote every thing
I could at the time and I needed to take a break
from writing poems and I didnt write, but
I still managed to get along and write stuff
that sucked but it was okay anyways because
it was mine and I wrote it and I liked it
even if it sucked because I wrote it and it was
mine.
