ten between

if you know

someone who thinks

more than this

let me know

will get the next thought

out into the air quicker

on top of the mountain

and the thick sheet of snow

not just on the side

of those heading up

hoping to make it

no doubt find the top

without having to try to fake it

and I might take it from

whomever had it first

and as many random thoughts

won’t quench the thinker’s thirst

for more I won’t stop at the door

at the table head down

into this book smoke thick

like a dread the future

it keeps coming and no one can stop it

you might have thought these

thoughts fell off after Drop It!

ten years between

back at it again

ten more years of thought

from now going back to then

until now someone

standing up straight

all thoughts of some Babylon

riches are going to have to wait

until more money made

because wealth is what runs

the world down

so many of these thoughts

pulled in all directions

except down

been suffocated by so many

won’t let myself down

after all  sorts of time

owe it to myself

put down the pen a minute

to get another book on

your shelf…
