A Strange Trip

| 1 Comment

This flu has made me drive the exit ramp,
take strange new roads that led to quiet woods.
For way too long a time the sickness hoods
that fell upon me turned into my camp.

This isn’t where I’m comfortable at all,
and writing took a backseat in my car.
I’ve been so lost, and had to travel far
to lands where creativity is small.

  1. May I add some to your wonderful words?

    “I’ve been so lost, and had to travel far
    to lands where creativity is small.”

    Hard times upon us all
    sometimes fall.

Write. Talk. Tell me everything.
