Continuing the forgotten poetry series, here are two poems about writing titled “Inside My Pen” and “The Pen.”

Again, these would have been written between the years 2000 – 2005.

Inside My Pen

A fluid movement from my pen
Into the form of a figure
Slowly breathing, breathing in life
As I back away for fear

This creature erupts into a smoke
Filling the room with ink
Slowly melting, melting to form
As the monster captures

Here I am trapped in my pen
The figure writing my words
Happily Living, Living my life
As I’m inside my pen

---

The Pen

Others don their own mistakes
Just to prove their fall from grace
Martyrdom; the world’s hatred for them
Leaves them to write farce with a pen
For silver spoons in decaying mouths
Leave us to suffer from their sounds
What love was lost may be won again:
Please stop complaining with the pen.
