Writing With Wreck

by amada


When wanting, my writing grew
Rich with intensifiers and adverbs,
Felt verbs falling from above
Like blossoms
Fit for a bridal shower...
or for a vow

when I dared not to do
some rules.

And then,
Nouns found a nest under a cedar tree

nouns found a nest under an adjective green ---   NEW 2 LINES
and they added modifiers to enhance the mood.

And they asked for
Out of nowhere modifiers
To enhance a tired mood.

By then
I couldn't resist a thought....

When a phrase stopped, by shy,
With dare I wanted to write about
And break
Some scary starchy rules...

Just to let it spin, relax, go cool...
Without breaks
Give it some ease
To carry on
And let it tell its thing
in its way

And I went ahead
Writing very silly
Like changing tenses in mid sentences
Diagnosing irregular verbs as regular ones

Or, when in a better mood

Lightening a candle on a sad line
Or adding a ring-ring to a monot
 onous rhyme

Not wanting to be stopped by the harsh hush of a period
Or an amicable coordinating conjunction

Just write for the glory of it and ignore the doubters;
if, but, maybe;
Take a high-five with my fecund muse

And never suppress a thought
Just because
It doesn't adhere

To some gaunt
Grammatical rule.
