I Want Poetry

I want to write a poem
A poem is all I want to do
Right now
I want it very much
Very

I want to write a poem so much
That I want absolutely nothing
But wanting to write a poem
NOTHING
I don’t even want a poem to write
For so many years so far I’ve written great many a poem
But none of them have I wanted to write as much
As now

I so much
So much want to write a poem
Want want want
So intensely do I want to write a poem
That except for my immeasurable desire to write a poem
Nothing else goes through my mind

That’s why I only write
How
Insatiably
Infinitely
Irresistibly
Ceaselessly
Morbidly
Beastly
Pathologically
Insanely
Eternally
Simply
I want to be a poem
