In the curse of a verse

In the curse of a verse

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Be still my thoughts
do not run
with pen in mind
or find your words
placed upon
a poetic curse
from which the flow
will have you drown
in the flood plains
of your verse.

And they’re racing,
the green lights are on,
it’s a stampede,
the motor’s running
but the mind is not.

Give way everybody,
give way…
a thought is 
coming through.
