Sometimes I sit to write and words just flow. It's almost as if my pen has a mind of its own. We all know that isn't true...but what if it were? Imagine you sit down to write and your pen takes over. Write a scenario of an out of control pen. What would your pen write without you in control? Go anywhere you would like with this! Poem or prose! I will do one too! Tag me!

I Was Given A Day To Write What I Pleased

I had this shining

vision of The Great American 

Novel, but then I became jittery,

giddy, and perhaps a bit spastic,

so many places to go and only 

a day's space to do it

If she doesn't

change 

her mind.

As she 

is prone to do

in a single

eye's blink.

Freedom drives

me crazy, a time limit 

freezes me up, I have 

momentary images 

of character defamation

no, wait, 

that cannot 

be right

I think I am

spoiling this journey

before it has even begun

because

when the truth

must be revealed

I am too much

like her

to ever be

anything different

and anything

I dare to write

will have her

written 

all over .

Love and complete nonsense,

Phynne's Ridiculously Guileless Pen
