The Subconscious Author

[mlewys]

It is the word "fist" I write
Not "first" on the lined paper
With my smooth, rolling pen.
When I read over my writing,
I see how the word doesn't
Make any sense. I scratch it
Out and write the correct
Word over it. Again.
And again.
And again.

Fist. I may not be making
A fist, but I am writing one.
