Inspiration comes
in the middle of the night
I rush to write it down
And wait for morning light
How hardly can I wait
to read what I have wrote
Just the night before
My inspiration note
It's often boom or bust
Like crashing of a wave
Like lassoing the wind
These fleeting thoughts to save
When the lights go dark
Inspirations gone
All that you can do
Is wait for it to dawn
