If I have to write
1000 bad
Poems
To only
Find
That one of them is
Good
So be it
Nothing else matters
Except the sound
Of machine gun fingertips
Rapid fire of truth
Spitting words with
Purpose
Something about
That sound
Noble and professional
Filling a void
For which
Even sex
Has no
Upper hand
Then
In walks
My beauty
With a clearing
Of throat
Ready
For me
And suddenly
I have forgotten
The point
Behind writing

The last stanza is great. the over all feel of this piece is very unique i think.
one suggestion:
"Noble and professional" - the word 'and' took away fromt his line for me. the way the entire poem just sort of flows out of your brain and down to the paper is unique and great for the rhythm. But the word 'and' seemed to break the cascading flow of the piece in my opinion.
I kept wanting to read it like:
Noble
professional
Filling a void
For which
Even sex
Has no
Upper hand
