It's getting tiring..
cooking a poem
the fire's there
the ink is heated
but when i throw
in the words,
try to stir fry
them
trying to cook
a decent poem,
i wonder
have i chopped them
up properly
diced them verbs nicely
minced the nouns
selected the right metaphors
have i added them
in the right order
or missing some spice
of adjectives.
and when it's done
serve it on a page
and garnish with line breaks.

This piece seems quite incomplete, but it's the best i can do for today..
