On Paper
I seek to solve
that which cannot
be unravelled
the conundrum
takes over
my mind completely
I am stuck on
the issues surrounding
the puzzle at hand
there are loose threads
all about the problem
and I try to focus on one
I must weave these
thoughts back into
their proper place
some of them
burst into flame
as I do reach
I see this ball
of ideas as gigantic
threatening to over-power
my sanity is in question as
I try to write the disconcerting
out of my subconscious
I seek to solve
that which cannot
be unravelled
the conundrum
takes over
my mind completely
I am stuck on
the issues surrounding
the puzzle at hand
there are loose threads
all about the problem
and I try to focus on one
I must weave these
thoughts back into
their proper place
some of them
burst into flame
as I do reach
I see this ball
of ideas as gigantic
threatening to over-power
my sanity is in question as
I try to write the disconcerting
out of my subconscious
