notes

Most people check they have

Everything

Before they leave the house

     -keysphonebag-

I have to have my notebook

No notebook

No notes

No notes

No inspiration

No inspiration

No poem

No poem

No release

No cathartic self indulgence

No rhythmic therapy

People pay shrinks thousands of pounds

My notebook cost fifty pence

Who’s crazy now

When people forget

     -phonebagkeys-

It’s not the end of the world

For me

Forgetting my notebook

Is akin to forgetting a limb

Take away my notebook

Take away my inspiration

Take away my poems

You just leave the husk

Of a man

The reason

The notebook exists

Is to ensure

I don’t forget the notebook

Don’t forget the poem

Don’t remind myself

Why I write.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

do not forget the notebook

◄ seen but not heard

I can really identify with this Stu. I need to atleast have a pen with me. I'll write on scraps of paper if need be but I need a pen. Nicely done!
