Procrastination Temptation (A Poem for Day Eighteen of PAD)

Here is the prompt  copied from Poetic Asides for day eighteen: For today’s prompt, write a temptation poem. Nearly everyone is tempted by something: fame, glory, money, chocolate. Today is the perfect day to give in to the temptation to write about your (or “a friend’s”) temptation. Also, I totally understand the temptation to write about The Temptations today.

I'll Write It Tomorrow

Procrastination Temptation

Take two
lines, call
myself
a poet
in the morning,
when hope
arises,
vacates
the block,
breaks
out
of my head,
breaks
in
my pen.
