Change, me?A Poem by Craig ThomasIntrospective
My eyes are tired,
too tired to see The obvious in front of me My mind spends time In other places And brings to me fragmented traces If I reflected And took time out A sense of things I'd have less doubt But I am a creature Who does not think I do what comes upon instinct I feel, I know No reason why I write things once, no second try My paint's on canvass No sketch initial You'll see my heart not superficial Would I change My traits remove And could my outward face improve Would my writing improve by letter And paintings suddenly be better I doubt it would be my reflection As after taking close inspection Of my rhyming introspection Change to me is not correction brilliance comes from imperfection © 2011 Craig Thomas |
