My partner asks that I write 

something loving

sometimes about her 

I ask 

myself why I am

so. ..

Jazz is for ordinary people 

sorry poetry isn’t! Or

is it?

Music without words 

Words with no beat

What does distilled mean?

Are they separate arts, writing and 

music. It depends on 

what the use is

Who chooses to listen 

i choose to be 

I way

Her way seems to work,

sometimes - perhaps, just maybe 

perhaps. This isn’t what she was thinking.

But.. .

It is 

I who

WRITES

day after day

It’s not so much a passion 

My mind just doesn’t shut up

I have:.

YOU

you

U

YoU

yoU

YOu

yOU

You

yOu

wHy is it

We do what we

say Such hurtful things 

WORDSMITH IS 

i love you

maybe just July 

and August too

I should be putting I or us before myself 

You are my love

I still put my

before our love

yoU love me 

Isn’t that something 

LOVE

YOU 

Won’t you, just for today,

love me too?
