thought expands

right in the middle

too much to expect sun

rob the rich of thought

put yesterday back

what now as thought expands

relaxing with emptiness

or hours not speaking

in because he put himself there

who yawns when they are not tired

what now when thought expands

only wish to capture with pen

all that the eyes might miss

all the detail overlooked

now under the influence

of inspiration

what moveable object will go

untouched

what Rimbaud never shared lost

found in recesses of the imagination

found in a thought given

standing tall now as the short man

swears he has been improperly judged

indecently exposed and he has been

in good company reaching into

the empty heart too full to comprehend

and he will stumble now

yet to be determined

what now as thought expands

Rimbaud whispers in the dark

moving this pen

vision he no longer has to imagine

only open eyes

what now when thought expands…
