I wrote 56 poems in 2014, the most since 2001 (122),
and more than 2004-13 combined (47). This was my fifth-most prolific year in 31 years of writing poetry.
The four poems on May 28 (and again on Sept. 20) were the most written in one day since July 2,
2004. The seven poems in May (and again in July) were the most in one month since January
2004, and then the 12 poems in September were the most in a month since October
2001. By November, I had lost steam.
Also note the spurts: Three poems in 17 minutes on March 27; four poems in 46 minutes on May 28; four poems in
30 minutes on July 14-15; six poems in two days on Sept. 20-21. This is evidence of what I already know —
that sometimes I experience bursts of creativity, while other times weeks (or years) will pass without such a
thought.
