“to write a poem

is to explore

the unknown

capacities

of mind….”

 

      well

 

if that be the case

      then mine is well known

 

it being

the most capacious

of kind

 

there is

so much space

      I get lost

      in the place

 

where most times

I’m so hard

to just find

 

~

but here I am

 

and look!

 

you followed

 

tell me

      is that

Ariadne’s

      gold twine?

 

it stretches

      far out

from you

      behind

 

no fear!

      to be here

 

the story’s a line –

 

the myth

      of a monster?

 

and a labyrinthine?

 

      why

this is just merely

some thoughts

from my mind

 

but since we have

      a minotaur too

let’s have

a close look

at that twine
