thinking

i was thinking
of writing a poem
for a contest
but i thought
it was verging on delirium
to imagine myself
a poet.
i staggered to the
corner of the bathroom
and sat on the side
of the bathtub.
i stared into the oval mirror.
wishing i had the ability
to write just one
profound poem.
i really think i was
just delirious.

So really this is a poem I wrote today, like just now, and maybe I'll submit it to a contest, not sure yet...have to use 5 words.  Delirium, corner, stagger, bathtub and oval in the poem or short story. ANYWAY!
