The Ninety Sixth, Apr. 5, 2011

abstract thinking again
wondering why ducks
no idea why ducks
just ducks are there

random bits of nothing
like flies getting stuck
ideas cling to the strip
forming no coherency

distracted by shiny
glitter holds attention
can't focus on anything
scattered images float

it is like having a fever
shifting constant flux
nothing lasts forever
somethings not at all

lost in my own mind
while never moving
looking at the colors
concentration impossible

another day of wonder
seeking a child's awe
finding the beauty
never looking beyond

time now to focus in
on being responsible
and wake up to reality
such a sudden change

  1. Within the mystery that is our brain we find deep and shallow aspects. We find ways to stay focused for long periods of time and moments when today's reflection happens. Some do not know of such 'swings' and take it for granted they will always be as they are today. I could never say one is preferable.
