hard to put titles on words

I
don’t
believe I ever
told you this, but
you are an inspiration
for my trip that isn’t verse.
I have followed yours as well
and even if my head is all empty,
I’m super proud and inspired by you.
Happy men with lots of girls do not run
to write poetry. Surely not toward poetry
from past centuries. The inner poet and I’ve
been talking, and he’s not happy since he told
me to please stop thinking and go back to bed.
The passing of life;
working, dancing, sleeping,
writing, talking, taking a shit,
crying or laughing a lot and,.fucking,
I am going to do this often and bring myself up.​
