Analysis of My Name is Steve and I'm a Poet-aholic



My poet mood can happen fast.
I never know how long it'll last
I must write or I will forget.

The rest of life becomes a blur.
The way I always do prefer,
While finding words in my mind-set.

That's why my habits change so much.
My rhymes are close enough to touch.
I slowly choose each one.

Don't rush me as I write each line
Or you will see a frown of mine,
I'll tell you when I'm done!
