Caffeine, Cannabis, and Creativity: A Poem

She writes

not well, but she does it

Words fall clunking into place

one by one,

forming one sentence 

Then another

This is what happens when coffee meets sativa

& 2 am rolls around 

Halfway between a sleepy haze

and a chemical-fueled daydream –

what a cloud to float on

When you commit to something

a resolve is forged,

one that grows stronger with practice 

When I committed to writing, 

I pledged myself to daily crafting

even if only for ten minutes

(it’s the thought that counts at times)

It’s not always easy,

some days harder than others,

but the rest 

possess a beautiful, self-assured 

strength and honesty 

that never gets old
