What force compels my left hand to write? <br />My right hand wants to know <br />For it is seriously <br />Lacking <br />Sleep <br /> <br />Words stream in patterns <br />Like a distant rhythm <br />Must follow <br /> <br />No sleep again tonight, my friend <br />For I hear the music <br />Time to dance<br /><br />Lori Boulard<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/why-poetry/
