I Don't Feel Like Writing
I Don’t Feel Like Writing
I don’t feel like writing
A poem today, what with what
All is going on, though
All has always been going on
And it never stopped,
Say, Tsvetaeva, who only stopped
Writing to let her hands
Busy themselves with the knot.
It’s best not to stop if you can
Help it, and you always can.
Writing only takes one hand.
