We,
caught in the tangles
of a once-thoughtful mind,
all too much in
‘Bogged-down’
mode to ‘let it go’!
We suffer, wait,
ask
when will we be free,
liberated,
let loose to give
our festival of words,
parade of thoughts
to the world?
Other minds,
need our guidance,
our wisdom!
Oh, frustration!
Oh, drat!
Desperate ideas
send sour to his stomach,
burn to lungs;
that have rested far too long.
Grumbles the hears
and, how he squirms!
Yet, messages fail!
until……
Of a sudden, a miracle,
a jolt really,
the pen is lifted -
we hold our breaths!
as…
Liberation begins!
