I Write As I Write Poem by Ferdinand L Quintos

I Write As I Write



Writing poetry is fast,
like chasing the waters
the rain has dropped
before they reach the drains.

I think fast, much to fast
for my sluggard pen,
though i could run fast
in high school they called
me Jesse Owens.

So what I usually do
is encode it in my brain
and slowly write it
peeking into it every now
and then, like copying
during school exams.
