I'm jolted out of bed
by a gem of inspiration
and I scrounge for pen and paper,
in quiet desperation.
When I finally chance upon them
and a surface that is stable,
my mind is just as blank
as the paper on the table.
And should I contrive to scribble down
some barely half-formed thought,
I struggle in the morning to interpret what I've got.
Boy, does this sound familiar? A very nice read. Thanks Richard
