assigned - or an act of procrastination

--- really this one is for me - but I'm sharing --- though it is really just a act of procrastination

I am supposed to be writing an essay

1000 words on the nature

of Jesus

in relation to some Old Testement

 

figure

 

it is a literary study

for a literary class

to get another literary degree

and

so

 

the assignment -as always

has been on my mind

and I am looking at the amount of time

that

I

have left

on the clock

 

I just finished a

exertation

on dialect and Dunbar

and I listened

to the tapping of his gentle rapping

on the windows of my being

and was moved and delighted and inspired

but

then I turned

to this

assignment

and

now

I do not want to

think

and I am to think about

symbols

and ways that this Jesus

is decribed

and write - did I say in

PROSE
that ordinary way of writing or speaking

and perhaps thinking

a lesson

a blessing

they will be testing

no doubt

but

tonight

 

I am messing

around

like a clown

in a room full of words

and nice

 sounds

 

well since 3

today

and

all I can do

is gush

and my brain is a mush

and I desire to flush

this required

reading

 

down the

pipes

that lead away

from here

where

 I

AM
