thought collector


collecting thoughts
as if they were
rare coins or stamps
keeping them in
a book or two
busting the binding
book can’t hold onto
the thought
holds them together or apart
of the whole
image is one
compromised of all the feeling
that hides down deep
digging feet into the spot
so as not to lose this place
hands together in front
and behind these eyes
teardrops wait for
the right moment
losing track of time and space
between two
draws closer to the edge
but further from the ground
stares up into the night sky
has finally cleared…
