stroking my imaginary beard
an illuminated thought crosses my tenebrous mind
hurrah! I interjected.
clumsily waking up from my lulling bed
wiping my groggy eyes
with dexterous fingers groping on the desk
for a pen to pen my thoughts


thoughts in full spate
hands too numb to match the pace
of words hurtling like a roaring river
chock a block I shiver

on days when the mind feasts sumptuosly...
