Fleeting Memories of Spiraling Ink
Tick, tock, tick as the wheels of motion flicker
Each nerve formulating extraordinary ideas for my poetry
Inspiration falls down to the smooth, dry surface;
Crumbing under my fingers
As the spiraling ink flows from one end of the world to the other,
While bring untold stories toward the aging pages
Memories drill through the temporal lobe in my mind
Falling down the dark and rocky tunnel;
Stumbling nervously as I try to follow the perplexing underpass
Putting pen to paper pulls me,
Into a world I thought I would never venture
A world of clashing, frustrating and uncontrollable emotions
The micro particles of each spec of duct suffocate the very memories,
Fabricating emotions I don’t even comprehend
Memories of an unforgettable smile
Impetuously laughing at his hilarious puns
From one of my best friends in the universe
And the warm embrace of that one special aunt
Who you do anything for,
Just to make her happy
Forces me to have an unquenchable thirst to write.
