SCHEMATIC RHYME

SCHEMATIC RHYME

A Poem by Mark
"

Seems silly in its execution, but contains much poetic angst...

"

You ever have one of those nights, when the idea that's been charging
around in your brain for weeks, COSTING you sleep, finally wakes you up
out of a dead sleep and announces it's ready, whereupon you have
to tear out of bed frantically searching for paper and some sort of
writing implement, before the revelation evaporates? Such was this.

SCHEMATIC RHYME

"Abba, Abba!" (Seedy, seedy!)
        See de making o' de sonnet
        Watch him bleed his blood upon it,
When rhyme is slime, and time is needy!

See him grasp, no, GULP!, so greedy
        How bad the Writer seems to wan'it
        Symbolic, syllabalic vomit�
Random iambs, yes, indeedy!

Like a glob of Godly guano
        From celestial cesspool place

Stinky stuff lands in my head, bro.,
        That makes my mind and fingers race

                In quest of paper first, then meaning,
                From mental sewer, I be gleaning!

i'm afraid my muse sleeps as soundly as i do, so i haven't had this experience. i really enjoyed your telling of your story though. i liked the contrast of style and language. nicely done.

This is a riot. You are a very amusing muse, my friend. Now lets get you tucked back into bed QUICK! Pssst Sheila do you have a very large butterfly net? lol Mark, you're a poet, so haven't you learned by now to always keep a pen and paper beside your bed? This was an enjoyable read.

Hurry, quick, hasten, gather penn, start to write so that the grabber of sleep may be sent scurrying off to grab another writer....all so much delightful fun!! I never know what to expect from you my friend!! This is quite different, but intriguing to say the least!
