For better or worse I'm addicted to verse
Especially if I can rhyme em
Thesaurus in hand - each thought is well planned
Better if I can perfectly time em
And so it goes the highs and lows
Are even better still-
Perfectly paired no syllable spared
It gives me such a thrill
Collecting my words from near and far
jotting them down as I go
til they jump to the page cause for me it's a stage
And oh how I love a good show
Each morning at dawn before the world wakes
I live in my own universe
Fingers dance on the keys words become melodies
you could say I'm addicted to verse

And some things
I am Sure-Fire
Integrated and
Accompanied or
With someone-
In company or else
Aided-
Hopeful and with help.
Among others before
