MUST I WAIT FOR A POEM?


Must I wait for a poem?
Or can I call it forth
By inspiration fleeting
Living well in a dream beating
In my twilight sleeping
Or in my awakening leaping?

Must I wait for a poem to appear
When in my thoughts are always here
Will I call it by strict Demand?
By performance command will it stand?
Or must I wait for a pleasurable thought.
Perhaps  experiences that my life overwrought?
I do not have to wait for pleasure or fear
I am a poet and I am here…
