One More Poem

Before I drag my weary butt off to bed
I feel compelled to write
one more pointless little poem
   with the hope of course
   that it will turn out to be
   something more than just
  one more pointless little poem
   perhaps a minor masterpiece
   of modern poetry
   that would nice
so I sit here at my keyboard
- it’s just as handy as a pen and pad -
and tap out one word after another
and hope they fall into place
in some way other than ordinary
okay
that’s enough I guess
now I’m off to bed
