cerebral crunch

I should be famished
the morning is deep
in sunshine, rotated...
high above the frozen eave
all I really want to do
is write a few new poems, record
my streaming insanity
while it flows like gushing wine, through the burgeoning bloodstream
through the ancient conduits of twisted ideas
my fragile contentment.... shoots the gap,
confessional rivers
race to their mother's arms
the grumbling, rumbling stomach
can be ignored
long as the poet's mind
can get that satisfaction, the one that eluded Mick, so many years ago
So I spin my silly tales
like they actually mean something
my right hand flies across the ruled field
food for thought fills the bowl.....the breakfast of champions
