AN UNCORNERED KIND OF INSPIRATION

Folder: 
JOURNAL#10

I have to play secretary to my mind

constantly as I let the thoughts rip from the walls

of self restraint and take my experience

what I create can become an unrealistic beauty in the

form of an eye catching phrase

while at the same time its quiet simplicity can come

so quickly to consistently amaze

the avid reader in his own private thought processes

only average is the thinker who never once confesses

to being blown away or merely moved by a book's passage

a song or poem

where some choose to simply just write I on the other

hand like to sit them down and show 'em

and I like to and do just that

many times and quite well too

I've been told in fact..............

I am always being blown away by the writer who can weave the meaningful into an extraordinary phrase.
