Uncontrolled

My tornado thoughts

Spinning

Spinning

Spinning

Tearing ideas into

fragmented shrapnel

whipping around in the wind

one piece landing in my chest

the other miles away

 

My oil rig thoughts

Drilling

Drilling

Drilling

Diamond drill bits

sparkling yet damaging

ravaging the mantel

of my brain, hitting

a deep subconscious

oil pocket, black ooze

gushing out to the surface

 

My flint spark thoughts

Burning

Burning

Burning

One spark hitting

the kindling forest full

of dried pine needle worries

igniting an uncontrolled

wild fire, turning everything

into black ash

 

These untamed beasts

Clawing

Clawing

Clawing

my mind apart
