There is something
Tyrannical about the pen
The way it wags back and forth
Like an admonishment
Eradicating, replicating, reinventing
My thoughts are unsafe
Beneath its blue-veined insistence
All that is within me impoverished
Will be executed
As proof of perseverance

What is the deal with the annoying ads =(
mindlovemisery 
Lovely.
Thanks =)
Loved the pic and of course your words…wouldn’t it be nice although a process to write with a pen again and not type! The ads – you can ask WP not to show them if you want… I think. xx
I will have to look into it drives me nuts. Lots of glitches with my WP lately. Thank you so much there is something quite romantic about it =)
I never see them – just goes to show my popularity lol!
You’re welcome darling x
Lovely Yves, as always, though the thought of a tyrannical pen is a worry. An interesting image.
haha thanks Michael
You are welcome.
Cool poem, not sure what advert you are referring to or if it is related to the poem at all? In any case, really loved your portrayal of the tyranny of the pen for authors!! 🙂 🙂
Thank you so much Helen =)
A beautiful image, and wonderful poem. I see my pen as a great friend, but I understand the threat of inner most thoughts being revealed through the channel of a pen to be seen and faced. I’ve felt that fear at times. Blessings, H xxx
Thank you Harula I am being a little humorous by calling my pen a tyrant since it is my pleasure to write
Another great piece Yves, the pen is probably the most powerful weapon you could hold in your hand. I think the ads are why we get the blog for free.
Thanks Laurie! I was afraid of that haha
This is beautiful 🙂
Thank you so much =)
This defo makes me want to pick up the pen and do some writing off-screen, like I used to do!:)
The adds are annoying indeed, they changed them,they no longer advertise WP premium bundles but random, usualy horrid articles. At least that’s what I see
I just have constant pop ups it seems there are links in every post and even if you don’t click them directly they still spring up. You should do so =)
i am not getting this spam but i read that others are getting it too. its not just you if that makes u feel a lil better. i believe it is to get us to purchase premium. i have seen this tactic at another site. nothing is free.
at fb they are imposing the ads right in the same newsfeed as other entries. i dont go there much so it doesnt bother me.
Beautiful piece, Yves! My favorite lines:

Thank you so much I am so glad you liked it =)
writing is an act of perseverence for sure…and can be rather daunting too
in that what we create allows us to see different aspects of ourselves…
computer crashed a few days ago and i am just getting back online….
It does indeed
That sucks about your computer Brian
New favorite of yours!! {{{{{Hugs}}}}}}
Thanks Skye!
Well, thoughts are indeed powerful, especially when they’re immortalized thru writing.
They are indeed =)
I love this one.:)
Thanks!
