Not eating right, sometimes not at all <br />lack of sleep has me up against the wall <br />losing weight, forgetting dates, my skin has got a pall <br />gotta kick this poetry schtick before my tongue begins to loll! <br /> <br />My eyes have got that glazed, perpetually amazed look <br />you'd think I'd never seen verse or a poetry book <br />true, this site is new to me and a raving kook I have become <br />please help me ditch this habit before I come undone! <br /> <br />Hi there, honey, sure, I know you - - you're my husband, what's his name <br />and yes, I understand that I'm off my usual game <br />but I'm on a bounteous isle in the Sea of Poetry, so don't you worry, <br />I'll be back and not a bit the worse - - just for now, go get lost and let me finish one last verse! <br /> <br /> <br />(4.6.06)<br /><br />Esther Leclerc<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/obsession/
