swim around my head
they float in and out like clouds
emerging in the morning light
shedding subconscious shrouds
they cruise like languid fish
among hopes and fears
among anxieties and demons
among the loves and tears
they are dragged into order
to face the day’s demand
they are harnessed into logic
but they are criminals on remand
they are human nature vagabonds
we try to steer them through
suspicion fear and rivalry
to enlightenment brand new
i love their feral ways
they challenge us every day
the are random and wild
they keep us in the fray
