Lightbulb



I wait with my pen and paper
for inspiration to strike me

Others see me looking down
and presume it's some gadget

But my method is mechanical
and needs no one’s electricity

Save for the sparks of thought
that leap about in my brain

  6. a wonderful expression. people do sometimes find it funny to see me writing something down by hand. they're confused on what purpose that could possibly have besides maybe a grocery list, lol. well done.

You may put in your 2¢ worth, but I'll only pay you a penny for your thoughts.
