Early morning thoughts at the height of a snowstorm...
*Thoughts reverberate inside my brain* *transcending time and space* *Meddling in places then slipping* *into some gossamer matter lace* *Where threads weave images* *through the fear filled frames* *Things that go bump in the night* *so seldom have real names* *Then scrambled ions tangle* *in a human electric maze* *That twists the worth of sanity* *till we�re staring through a haze* *On a fine line of intelligence* *stupidity tilts the scale* *I�m clutching at a strange divinity* threads unravel as I fail.

Just stunning, Felix. Chilling and compelling - this is what I call a white-out! Like clutching at a reflection in water. Can feel the frustration and yet the strength to overcome here, too. Wisdom to know, also, when to give it up until the fog clears itself away. Wonderful and unique thoughts and images expressed in this piece and carefully chosen and laced-together words. And I like the use of "white" for what could otherwise be construed as a "black" write - things going bump in the night, and all that! In this poem, you have exercised a true discipline in knowing that what is left out is as important as what has been put in - this is a balance that I personally always struggle with. I like this a lot and am keeping - hope it doesn't melt away on me!! TY very much and LOL Kate xx

Now I have a name for my condition. There is a method to my madness after all.

When one can't sleep there are many bumps in the night...and as you said...few of them have real names.
Excellently penned Felix!

It's strange the thoughts a precaffinated mind can have in the morning. In all seriousness, I love the structue and flow to the poem. Very intriguing subject matter.

Lost Dreams, Found Memories

As the years ahead become fewer than the ones we left behind the mind and imagination sometimes turn dark... <br>

Just Another Old Sailor

Sometimes I am actually glad my years on this planet are winding down. I lived in the best of years but see this old world slowly and at times not so

not so great again

<br>Just in a reflective mood...

Towards the Ending

When Your Memories Visit

How Could You Let Us Fade Away?

It is hard to forget a dance when your dance partner won't leave your heart... <br>

Our Forgotten Dance

As humans the ability to forget is often as strong as the ability to love.
