Thoughts.

Thoughts like rain
Inundate the mind
This blank page
Effortlessly lined

The carpenter crafts the table
The hitter bats the ball
Me? My thoughts burst
Through every mental wall

Some are quite good
Others rather bad
Some are the very best
I've really ever had

Some intrude
Others are invited
But once they begin
The conflagration is ignited

These old and fresh thoughts
They come and they go
Thoughts! These companions
Evermore flow

Les Projections Mentales

Mindful chassés Amidst quixotic skirmishes Riding abstract waves - En pointe flourishes Disciplined glissandos Along illumined keys Measured tremolos Vibrating Gaia's seas Orchestrated precision Whirlpools twist Nature's decision At the turn of a wrist Enigmatic code Manifests intention From Water's abode Emerges dimension - J.

How do I fix myself? How do I find refuge? I'm graceless. I'm unlovable. I'm repulsive. I'm fake. How I wish someone would just... Hold my face and assure me I am none of those things. I only want to be forgiven and understood. Perhaps I am too far gone to save. What has gone so terribly wrong in me  That I'm uncapable  Of steering my ship Through the changing tides? Why do I wreck it instead  And blam...

A Stirring

I repose in my ship setting at the harbor  Ruminating about the endless time Arms behind head; gazing towards gilded sun In comes rolling clouds ever sublime Anchor up; ship unmoored Wind guides me into the ocean infinite Waves crash; the spray cools my face  Land dissolves into distant memory; I sit Clouds abate; I move about Looking o’er starboard; gold dazzles the surface Waves calm with the rhythm of my heart I furrow my brows, pondering purpose My ship still; creatures circling about Mysterious beasts below; majestic birds high Life unattained by hand’s reach, Spirit touches Atlas, for a moment, releases the sky Time evaporates like a candle in the wind  The sun magnifies as it falls into the sea Day & Night collide; Past & Future fold The birds and whales move in harmony The collision a ripple in the ocean of the Universe Celestial beings burst into a spectral road Arcing down to the deck near my feet Nervous my eyes cast upon it to and fro No rails; no cert...
