Prompt 24: Obsession. One that stalks each of us on this site.
My soul hums with words demanding their moment,
the frantic scribbling of pen on paper,
they must be captured before they disappear,
lost in the chaotic realm of imagination.

The frantic scribbling of pen on paper,
a lullaby to soothe the muse's demands,
lost in the chaotic realm of imagination.
I must write, I must write!

A lullaby to soothe the muse's demands
lest she leech from me the last of my strength.
I must write, I must write,
My soul hums with the words demanding their moment.

-----
