Pen and Ink

Words pour out of me sometimes
I get on my knees in the corner
thanking the muse and Mickey Finn.

Other times I sit blinking, pen
scrawling nothing, tiny trolls
stealing my words before they are written.

I dream of notebooks, words
mocking me from the pages, known
only to the sleep-keepers.

Not a good day for writing for me, obviously. Hopefully things will settle down and I'll have something better tomorrow. But it's still a poem, I'm on day seven!
