I don't have a single complete suit of clothes
In my intellectual closet. Unsystematic,
I beat up a little game and leave it to
Knottier and more robust heads to track it down.
The germs of my best thoughts hatch ab ovo.
Under questioning, I'll throw out a word or two
Merely to be suggesting something,
Just don't ask me to say anything under oath.
To mature a proposition till it's ripe
Is beyond me. I bring my corn to market still
In the green ear. Superstitious sprite
Psyche spills ink into my dreamlife, all
I can recall upon awakening is a blot
And an odd odor as of thought escaping.

Nice one.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tim, I kind of like it too, though it scares me just a bit. I don't know if it's Piper or the rotating hypercube, something funhouse-mirror-ish in the whole gestalt... I guess that's what never sleeping does to one in the end. (But can this really be the end?)
