I have to finish this line before I put a full stop\n\n.\n\n- and then I wait for another five minutes before I carry on.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nI paced the library yesterday while waiting\n\nbut I still can't see it\n\nto experience it, I have to remember the circumstances\n\notherwise I'll read it in one flowing, coherent text\n\n( if I should ever care to read my own poems)\n\nI live my life in between sentences\n\nit sounds cool and edgy, I know\n\nbut it's the truth nonetheless\n\nBetween two sentences you can experience important events\n\nthat last for five minutes -or a month\n\nor you can die in between two full stops\n\nbut what I experience between the lines\n\nmay lead to something interesting\n\nOr not, It depends.\n\nHere I am, scribbling away because I started to think about it\n\nbut shortly, I'll lean back into my chair\n\nand\n\nthink about what I have written\n\n(one hour and fifteen later)\n\nIn a way, it doesn't matter what I have written\n\nThe only important thing is to write\n\nsomething\n\nhe who writes may be without sin, but not without life\n\nIf the poet is hit by a car, he'll stop writing\n\nIf the person next to him sneezes, he might push the hand leading\n\nthe pen and cause it to write an erraric line\n\nor that hand will write\n\n\"he sneezed\"\n\nand while it writes this, something else will happen.\n\nThe written is always late\n\nand it always tells about events that have alredy taken place\n\nbut very often\n\nit won't say anything at all\n\nI for one won't write everything down,\n\nIt would only take up more space\n\nand time\n\nright now I'm only writing\n\nand listening\n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Poetry","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1182298-poem-just-now.json","next":"https://sofurry.com/s/rm8vMJQ1"}}
