Poetexts: Temporary Mind Wandering
Temporary Mind Wandering
What is this
This communication we have both been seeking
Searching
Waiting for a reply
Until the morning light
A verbal exchange of past, presents, and futuristic desires
Hungering for a meal that has never before been prepared
Either that or it has simply been ignored
Are you feeling me
‘Cause I am feeling you
Your words
Your aspirations
Your need for more
So keep bringing the conversation because I want some more
And more
And more
Until I can’t take no more
And then give me some more
Let there be no confusion
This world is full of illusions
Contorted thoughts
And humiliating miscommunications
I’ll just sit back and wait for the next communication

I like this poem. Reminded me of that feeling of always waiting on something. I don’t like that feeling but it happens. How do I conquer it? I remember what I have NOW and live in the moment.

NOW is what is most important. I’m glad you were able to recognize that and live in it, Lola. Thanks for sharing.
