Ramblings (2002)

A Poem by Leon Gipson
"

What can I say?

"

There are:
words to say,
words not to say,
words that you want to say
words that you can not say
words that will take you away
and
words that will put you away.
There are:
actions to take
actions not to take
actions you want to take
actions that you can not take
actions that will take you away
and
actions that will put you away.
total confusion
or, total delusion
in what to do and what not to do
turning words to action
or
turning action to words.

What actions, what words.
Going round and round,
Racing in a straight and narrow
Paths that tease
Others making me sneeze

What is in my mind?
Lost in thought, for all things sought
For words and actions wrought.
All, for a few moments sought.
A fleeting glance to be caught.
