~~~
Do you follow me...

I've scattered thought
across countless stages of unveiled catwalk
Graced anthologies of rhyme
Watched you
watch me
indulge in second guess
Still ...
reflection
seldom circulates
obscured from Elementary Street

Fact is... words refrain
as thoughts pile higher
Each ode grows more insane
from straining to dip the quill
Leaning
way beyond comfort
to soak in
crisper thought

My only regret ...
a shortage of counterintelligence
