I’m Going To Write Poems

I’m going to write poems.
I’m going to sit on my butt and write poems.
I don’t care what you say,
I don’t care what you need,
I’m going to write poems for these people to read.

I’m going to write poems.
I’m going to look at this room I call home
and I’ll find in this mess
something worth thoughtfulness.
I’m going to write poems and I’m not going to stress.

I’m going to write poems–
set my chair in the sun and write poems.
Cobwebs clear from my head,
welcome poetry instead.
I’m going to write poems that ought to be read.
