When I Write

When I write, I do my best... To incite an insight! Some may not like. But I seek a comprehension. Not to revisit... A safety zone, Already known. Or one that has been mentioned. And when I write, I choose to test... A curiosity, Within me... That does not sit and rest. I want to produce seeds of understanding. And in the doing... Even I am not thoroughly delighted, By what I have to admit... Is a bunch of 'horseshhhiftivities' From that which I have sown. When I write! 'Horseshiftivities is not a word! ' I've entitled this poem 'When-I-Write' Not 'Give-me-Your-Unsolicited-Opinion'. 'Did you or did you 'not' ask me to read it? ' AND not a thing more did I ask! Did I? 'Correct.' But you must admit, That 'horseshifting' business drew you in, Right? 'No, Not really. I knew if I didn't read it... You wouldn't allow me to leave. Then I would have to deal with much more, Than just this 'horseshift' on your shoulders! '
