The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

When you...

This one felt pretty weird while I wrote it, and I'm not really sure about the artistic merit in it...but hell, I need to get back to posting ways. :P

 

When you don't have inspiration

Just write

When you feel nothing is right

Don't run

When you just want to hide

Face your fears

 

When you look at me

It makes my day.

I really like the flow of the first four lines of this poem, Patrick. :-) The way you rhyme "write" with "right" and then mimic the form of the second line in the fourth line was very well done in my opinion... those lines have a certain momentum that jumps out to me every time I revisit it. As a minor suggestion: I wonder if changing "Face your fears" in the sixth line to "Face fear" might add to the rhythm of the stanza without changing the meaning of the line?

 

Nicely done, thanks for sharing this here Patrick. :)
