By Candlelight

One of these days
I’ll write my epic poem.
It will, I am certain,
span pages, generations, and continents,
be a thing to strike fear
into high school students everywhere.

For now, however,
when I have nothing to say,
it seems best to confine myself
to just a few lines
scratched out by candlelight.
