Assignment 6: Write a Poem about Writing

Lightning

Ooh! Ouch!
This pen is on fire
Burns hot
Almost Red
As my words
Flow
Out of my brain
Down my neck
To my shoulder
Passing straight through
My heart to
My elbow
My wrist
My hands
My fingers spit
feelings
and truth
and discovery.
My pen streaks
Across the page
Sending sparks into the corners
Where they gather
Flames to light my way.
