I’ve discovered my destiny,

I make here my vow.

I must write an epic poem,

I will do it right now.

Or will I?

 

There’s washing needs doing,

I must finish that book.

I think there’s something on telly,

I’ll just take a look.

Be back in a mo…

 

Darn it! Enough of this bluster,

This no longer can wait.

I hear the muses calling,

Poetry is my fate.

Or is it?

 

There’s also the pub calling,

I’ll just pause for a drink.

It’s all part of the process,

I just need time to think.

You just can’t rush these things, you know…

 

But first thing in the morning,

Without further ado,

I will write my epic poem,

I won’t stop till I’m through.

Probably…

Almost certainly…

Eventually…
