Take a process that you do often - every day, every week. Driving a car, making breakfast, framing a picture - it doesn't matter, as long as it is a process that you know well. Write about it.

Taking a piss
on lsd is like ecstasy
taking a piss
on your bonfire
is like an instinct to me;
both flow naturally

The dignity of the artist lies in his duty of keeping awake the sense of wonder in the world. In this long vigil he often has to vary his methods of stimulation; but in this long vigil he is also himself striving against a continual tendency to sleep.- -Marc Chagall

One Threatening Dagger Every Moon Cycle Is Enough For Me

What lamentable ignominy and treachery
in the uttermost degradation of your sighs
separates your lips from instruments of pleasure.

Baked in the blushing and timid blood
of false truths smelly with liquor, sweat,
cigarette butts and human weakness
you offer me thorns instead of blossoms
filtering shadows into my eyes where ambition and pride
force me to play villain.

Your caresses are as cold as ice and your fidelity's a lie.
I will no longer write genuine poetry
under the influence of black olives and red wine.

What a satire upon a noble profession!

But the crystal decanters are simply charming
as I embark in literature
sitting at my desk with keyboard and monitor
simple nothingness before me.

You can see me if you care to come again
and in a few hours, in all probability
you will find a creation.

Maybe then shall you have a proper idea
of the dignity of an artist.

Spinning the pen round
tracking the thoughts down
pushing the ink round
jest of a gerund sound

transferred data in:
see ya latering
