Page after page after page
lurches forth from my pen
Draft after draft after draft
sometimes they start at the end
The doctor's orders (my prescription):
"Write 'til your fingertips bleed
Ride the lines galloping onto the page
'til your infinite being is freed
Set down the scientific papers
Push all the theories aside
Surf the waves of your memories,
Let the words tumble out on the tide"
Script to write
Re: Script to write
I particularly like the potential of this line, "Juan";
Ride the galloping lines...
It brings the reader into and onto the page.

I would change this a little though,(something like below) to bring out the poetry pregnant in that unique image you have created, but not yet refined.Ride the lines galloping onto the page

Re: Script to write
I really like your poem, Juan, including your suggestion, Mat. Far more succinct... no losses, only gains. Super script.
