I Can't Help It!!


I can't, I really can't help it!
This prolific-ness is out of control!!
I keep getting words around my brain,
And it's driving me round the pole!!!
So now I am being asked a question,
How long does it take me to write a poem?
Well honestly, I have to tell it true,
My words just don't stop a-flowin'!

It's not my fault; I was born this way,
But didn't know until I got real ill,
I was up the wall and down the pole,
And my pin wouldn't go away with a pill.
So I started writing my woes out,
Therapy, you know, to help myself,
Well the next thing I know, I've got thousands,
So onto the shelf they did go!

Then as they got more and more,
I decided to put them in a book,
Well now I've got 5 in total!
And if you don't believe me, go take a look!!
You see, 4 are on sale on amazon.com
In fact, they are on sale all over the world,
And all because, yep, all because...
My poems became unfurled!!

And if they took me more than-
Let's see, a few minutes to write?
Then I have to tell it true!
I'd put my PC away this very night!
Cos I couldn't be doing with that!
Sitting and thinking about what to write!
I sit and I type, and they flow to the PC,
If I couldn't, I'd be here all night!!

And that just won't do now will it!!
