All the different ideas

swimming around in my head
like how each one has advantages
or as many as can be remembered

the landscape of the jump
of the arms of the clock
in the corner of the eye
breaking thought
on which fingers still are right

its like filling in multiple choice
only the test is on the desk next to the pen
oh, so this is my survey
pick African plains

or the streets of Russia
yeah, it’s a little bit more work
to pay a travel guide

for ships passage
to the New World

but really, how bout a trip to Europe?
I heard there is some dandy landscape there

Wow, I am sure that Alaska is an amazing cruise
And look at those prices, woo-wee.

Or even shall I go to work today?Is it time for a career change?Oh, the wonder of nature!
Wow, you are really messed up
In a lot of ways, my friend

But no that’s too much of a downturn
It’s more like
What am I to eat tonight?
Where am I to sleep?

Until the sun rises again
On the Andes Mountains,
A newly bred thought will
Decessit sine prole.
Oh, that means die without children.

I really like this a lot and can identify with the idea of jumbled thoughts and dreams spinning like a whirlwind into nought. Looking forward to reading more of your work.
