Profile of A Single Celled Poet
Every now and then
I am somewhat inspired
To reach for a pen
And jot 'til I'm tired!
Sometimes a sketch
Sometimes a poem
I never know which
Or where things are going
Until it is time
To put down the quill
And if it's a rhyme
And I have time to kill
Then perhaps I will call
To this very place
And post on the wall
In front of your face
The latest emission
from J.Huffam's cell, not
A garret or prison,
The last grey one I've got!
:-)
