Ploughing Fields of Fury and Thought

Author's Notes: Stephen A. Roddewig, suggested that L.C.'s recent Top Story Abecedarian, Hitting Snooze on the New Year could be entered with a little tweaking for the #200 also. That got me thinking...and here it is...my attempt to kill two birds with one stone.

Extra-Author's Notes: There is a deliberate thing...can anyone spot it...it seems off...but it's very deliberate.

***

aspirations for the year, what might they be?

bargaining with words to what end we'll see

creating and destroying, worlds and patterns

dissecting the...my deep innermost thoughts

enthusiastically attempting the impossible

feverishly trying to make it the plausible

grandiose tomes and subtler, slighter tales

hoping for glory, until expectation derails

inspiration never runs dry, so just keep on

just keep writing, writing right the wrong

keep ploughing fields of fury and thought

looking back on the past twelve, I ponder

many ups, downs, my nerves ripped asunder

never give up, they say, never give in

only got a chance, if I'm in it to win

past aside, focus on the future, improving

quality or quantity? proof's in the eating

realistically just aiming for the best

stylistic consistency always my quest

thunderous applause, or a hushed approval

unequivocally both appreciated, after perusal

voyueristically peering through my writing

wonder if you're gasping, crying or laughing

xenagogue - I'll be yours through it all

yearning for signs I've answered my call

zealously never reaching my creative zen
