It All Falls Into Place
Tonight feels like the old times are back
As the smoke lingers on my mind as the
Beer greases these wheels of poetry and
The football offers something worth
Listening to for once and I don’t care the
Only emails I’ve got today are editors
Rejecting my words for all writers have
Days like this and tonight these words
Have come to cheer me on reminding me
The only critic I need to listen to is myself.
