PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

This poem came to me in the middle of a class, and I missed alot of it writing it. Seems dark but look beyond the words and enjoy.

One morning I was sitting on my bed and could hear the hot water rising up through the heating pipes and the first line of this came into my head.  Non-rhyming poetry comes very hard for me.  With rhyming verse I find the search for the rhyme somewhat controls the direction of the piece.  When you take that away I really have to write from within.  I like the results.  I must try to write more of it.

This poem has been selected for publication by the The International Library of Poetry in their spring 2003 publication.
