Writing Thoughtless Seamless Poem by Terence George Craddock

writers can be complete idiots,
memory stick would work
but poet writer writing
without thought is seamless,

thinking ruins word flow,
usually rush writing
this way gains
more than is lost,

stilted writing is avoided
writer poet writing thoughtless
stream of consciousness,

nature is often disjointed images
conscious unconscious images
muse creativity filers flawless

when experienced first hand,
random thought has virgin purity
an alluring fresh sculptural potential appeal;

while overthought overworked
lines stick in stuck dry parched throat
writers poets sometimes care

more for fleet moment than perpetuity
writ elixir is champagne bubbling or rum;
spirit refreshed or drunk swims in words

philosopher stone power transformations
transmutations were never so crystal clear
simple complex beautiful nor smelt sweet;

sight is but a weight of silver gold diamond
compared to symphony key note aspiring mind
what wonder endless creativity sings gem defined

noble art creative mind is but slight of hand
eureka moments are catalyst philosophers' stone;
aspired to perfection glittering golden words
