I wrote a poem! [gasp]

That's right.  I wrote a poem.  I had just written eight pages in Dr. Nbook when the poem just came out.  For someone like me who usually sticks to prose, a poem is rather remarkable.  Or something.  Here we go!

A Windfall of Words

Words dripping from the pen
like ink from a well
or milk from a jug
Watch them write themselves on paper
This is what I want.

Words oozing from the paper
like mud from a stream
or cream from a jar
Watch them wait at the outer edge
This is what I crave.

Words waiting at the edge
like kids from a play
or men from a war
Watch them fill the world around me
This is what I miss.
