Choice Word by Colin Boynton - HTML preview

MY LINES

AN INTRODUCTION TO MY POETRY

DON’T ASK ME TO INTERPRET

SOMETHING I DON’T KNOW,

ALL I DO IS SIT HERE

AND SLOWLY WATCH IT GROW,

I DON’T KNOW WHERE IT COMES FROM,

IT JUST SEEMS TO APPEAR,

QUICKLY, LINE BY LINE BY LINE,

AND THEN MY POEM’S HERE.

I HAVE NO TIME TO STOP AND THINK

WHAT I WRITE ABOUT,

THE WORDS JUST FLOW INTO MY MIND

I HAVE TO LET THEM OUT,

DON’T ASK ME TO INTERPRET,

I CAN’T EVEN EXPLAIN,

THE WORDS JUST MAKE A POEM,

TIME AND TIME AGAIN.
