HEART AND MIND CONSPIRE
February 6th, 2010 by Russ
My heart and mind conspire to make these words
with hopes that they will possibly be heard
somewhere. And so I take my pen in hand
and write a bit — a rather modest plan.
What I find within I seek to translate
into copy. It might illuminate
what otherwise you might possibly never grasp.
Perhaps you think that this is too much to ask.
Whereas I am at the mercy of this process
you are not. If I can’t write I’m stressed
but you are not obliged to read one line.
Without my words you’ll probably be just fine.
There’ll come a time when I will fire the muse.
I’ll cease to care and likely be confused.
