It’s there

on the backs of envelopes

hotel note pads

napkins and barf bags

The words

Of the greats

The songs immortal

They are all right there

Written down

In haste 

Captured 

In a moment

Captured for a lifetime

On display 

For all to see

There they are

Penned for posterity

By poets 

Like me
