200 Poems (completed Nov 25, 2016, 8:52am)

my desk

i just love my desk

it sits in a corner of my tiny living room

i really should clean it up

but can't see it happening anytime soon

in the right corner is a printer

a small gooseneck lao on top

some cds that i have recorded

and a buch of papers, sitting where they dropped

i have a picture of my family

sitting next to a metal tray

that has a large glass bowl

full of stuff i should go through, one day

there's a couple boxes of tissues

a external cd player

i know there's a hard drive hidden there somewhere

and poems i have written, layer upon layer

there is a ceramic bowl with lighters

a box of cigarette tubes

a note book

probably even a melted ice cube

dead batteries

my iPhone charger

a couple pairs of earplugs

the pile just keeps getting larger

some old bills

that i have to file

some old contest entries

even a diaper in the pile

(no its a clean one)

some iCloths for my screen

a beer glass that been there a while

it really needs to be cleaned

there's a crystal paper weight

a ladies purse

some old receipts

bit of a mess, but could be worse

there is just enough room

for my mouse and its pad

my e-cigarette and coffee cup

but really ...

its not all that bad

because when i need inspiration

when words can't be found

i just take a sip of ... whatever

and take a look around

and yes

in this mess

there is room for me

and my laptop
