Thanks, luv. Honestly, I've no idea where the words come from. I'll usually make some observation while moving about NYC, and sometime later a turn of phrase or even an entire verse will sort of melt into my consciousness. I'll scribble it down, and if I look at it later and still like it, I'll build a poem around it. But it's that initial kernal of thought that provides the springboard for the tone and rhythm of the rest of the poem, as well as the mood. It's always so good to hear from you. Ta. Atticus
