Why I Write (part 3) - poem composed in the waiting room at CityMD clinic

Of agency in its demotic aspect

Never for a moment less than 

Intimate in tone or intent

Indiscreet as a bumble bee

That is what I'm trying to explain

About Why I Write Not Just How 

On a day of the same name

Poetry may be undertaken 

As a spiritual practice

And a craft too I imagine

Not that I'm well practiced 

On either account

But I try to get by

Each day the best I can
