Analysis of Disarry
Robert loughran 1962 (Ireland)
The disarray is disarrayed,
the mess is getting deeper,
but the fall into the writers world
is just a little steeper.
My fussy friend is getting dismayed,
on my sanity she wonders.
I know i should put down this pen
and over lines not ponder.
But truth be told I've gotten bold,
I'm not a good boy any longer.
I spent my life doing all things right,
but the draw of art just stronger
