To catch a thought!

To catch a thought!

As words tumble down my ink;

my roller coaster mind

I stumbled on an idea,

only to see it grabbed, taken;

put back in the archives.

I was no quicker

catching a thief

as I was....

catching a thought.

Here comes a busload now

straight to the archives

where thoughts are buried,

put on the backburner,

lost, fading  stories

never to be told.
