brain is racing
marathon of thought
unable to slow
random and chaotic
frantic chasing
seeking resolutions
unable to focus
caroming relentlessly
need to breathe
restoring a balance
day is too young
to be so busy so soon
breathe not gasp
calm finally coming
clearing thoughts
and now to face the day
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.
I can appreciate the form of the poem connecting with the content of the poem today. "Thought" and "chaotic" almost rhyme. We follow, slowing with you...just barely slowing.
