The Process

The way I write is
I get a long and graceful table
And an old fashioned pen

Or a slender Japanese brush
And hack and hack and chop
With the dull wood sword

That disgraced ronins use for seppuku
Until my guts spill on the table
Then dip in the pen

And get something down on paper.

Sometimes the scars
Stay fresh for years.
