Poems

Sketching the Mind
Blurred visions,
seen through
prismatic lenses.
Iridescent scales,
shimmer romance
in turquoise waters.
Enraged waves,
froth the surface,
whipping kelp frenzies.
Lost in the rocks,
searching for nourishment,
crab claws open and close.
Reality closes in,
graphite imprints white fibers,
imagined colors drain.
Lost in the sketch,
mental vacations permanence,
shattered like a dropped crystal ball.
Swept into a pile,
but cannot be retrieved,
lost forever ephemeral.
