Record

I sit here
Listening to my record
Writing a poem about
Listening to my record

Take it out
Admire the art
Set it down

Open the record player
Turn it on

Take out the sleeve
Admire the it, maybe
Place the vinyl on turn table
Brush it if need be

Pick-up and place the needle
Turn the dial and listen

Watch it go around
Round and round.

I have been writing poetry for the last 13 years. It all started as an assignment for a creative writing course. I never thought I would like writing, as I am dyslexic and language was always a struggle for me, but I fell in love with the art form in that class.
