dVerse Poets – Poetics – An Artist Gets His Due

Of All The Shoulds
I’m not often still,
to sit quietly is to gather a storm,
unrelenting thoughts that swirl,
competing for my mind,
if I sit here too long I shall lose the
thread of it all to atrophy;
why am I here,
the ledger is incomplete
ships are unloading,
stock must be ordered ,
and yet here I am,
sighing,
wasting time,
I might even come to love it.
