Poem: How I Write

Jumbled up letters 
I sort them 
to spell out 
all kinds 
of words
to reflect 
how I feel 
inside 
sometimes
I see an idea
and dash off
my response
no frills
just raw intuition
other times
I think on
form and structure
like some 
sort of scaffold
for building
an airtight
alibi
some of these
are only 
approximations
and are not 
as precise 
as they could be 
but that's okay.
