Pick me
Choose me
Focus on me
Thoughts jostle for attention
Crowding out
peace, balance and calm
Cutting short reflection
Erasing planning
Triumphing for one brief moment
Before sinking back
into the throng
The mêlée
The riotous dance
Of thought
Of whimsy
Of control
Scattering
Regrouping
Reforming
Coalescing
Thinking
Speaking
Writing
Moving faster than the speed of light
Neurons zapping
A chain of reaction
Gliding
Swooping
Flying
Falling
Sinking
Stopping
Drowning
Resting
Resurfacing
Flitting here and there
Saying, ‘Catch me if you dare’
Laughing
Crying
Whispering
Shouting
Solid
Misty
Flickering
Shimmering
Flaming
Doused
On
Off
Chanting
Beckoning
Glimmering
Hoping
Praying
Believing
Speaking
The future
The past
The present
Gone
Creating
Breathing
Aspiring
Breathing life
Now
