Permanent Pen As it slides across the surface, a trail is left mind you though it is not of natural being. It aids the form in keeping ideas together for they are left easily from the natural. As I speak it moves mysteriously, noting my every thought. My pen is my life. Writing is left and ideas vanish but the pen still serves. In it's place I do put my ideas there Alone... Waiting... PEN Alive... Thoughts. R. David Paine III
