Incessant Dribble (for G. Ricard) by Joe CramerIt drips
and rips
down the pages
of my soul
filling blank books
and blank looks
and even some odd
blank notebooks.
The words
d
r
i
b
b
l
e
on
incessantly
and I don't
know what to do
except to pen more
and hope someday
they
don't all end up
in some drawer.
(Or in neat, tidy
bundles like Emily's)
So I drip,
drip
d
r
o
p
these words
on a page
in the hope that
you,
gentle reader
will enjoy
the
d
r
o
p
l
e
t
s
that spew forth.
Thanks man....
