Description Isn't it funny?
That they call me crazy

For my obsession with
The Pen

They laugh when I say
That the pad is my soul
And the ink my blood

They say it's absurd
That my word
Could be what makes me work

Now as I sit in this cell
The doctor tries to break my world

Numbing,
Dumbing,
Taking my will
With these absurd
Pills

Would you take a man's breath?
Away
I say
No they say

Then why is it hard
To believe the drying ink
Is my blood?

The funny thing about this, was this was written during a day of hard writers block where i was struggling with my main piece Nightshade. I had three different scenes that i could map out but each was in a different chapter, it was driving me insane. Then I had character driven smut in my head, i unplugged from my computer for a while started listening to music, let my mind wander and then bam poem slowly curling it's fingers around my brain.

Thanks for the comment
