Kitten-Like

Written in May 2008. THis is the closest I've ever come to accurately describing myself... And interesting and unintentional experiment.

 My mind is constantly moving

In a wavering staccato of inconsistency.

Jumping from one thought to the next

I can’t complete a sentence

Or a thought.

Constantly distracted

by the lights in the night sky

the sparkling smiles

and glittering glass.

Like a kitten I chase

Whatever catches my interest

At the moment.

Sometimes becoming so lost

In the pursuit that I forget

What I sought to begin with.

A quick smile,

Somber eyes,

And a mind crazier

Than a jack rabbit on speed.

I really really like this, it seems like a sort of harsh description of yourself though.... Well besides all that , NORMAL is overrated and so is sanity, if you are insane i like you much better this way.
The lines "My mind is constantly moving

In a wavering staccato of inconsistency"
just made me think " thank god , I'm not the only one"
it also just sounds really awesome rolling off the tongue.
it does feel like there's something missing at the end though , i think maybve you need a transition phrase b/w "What I sought to begin with". and "A quick smile, "

But i think you, yourself , are indescibable. indescibably wonderful, caring, smart, creative, and completely wonderfully insane right there along with the rest of us.

Hhaha! Great stuff, joyful and fun...but still so inquizative (sp), I also don't think I've ever tried to describe myself yet in the writings gone by...so I might give it a go! :)
