If you write – Don’t Miss Penny’s great piece – “THE THIRST REMAINS”
The need in me
to spew forth my thoughts
is undeniable
My fingers are drawn
to the keyboard
searching for that release
I’m the junkie
twitching
for his next fix
I’m the drunkard
looking for his next drink
I’m the lover
yearning for the touch
of your skin
I long
to watch the letters
flow across the screen
as I chase
the cursor
The cursor is
mocking
me today
My thoughts will not
emerge upon the page
Today
the thirst will
remain
