Inspiration
August 6, 2011
Just a fly-by-night nothing,
flapping briefly in my head.
Then it slips into the empty void and plummets till it’s dead.
But for that moment I can taste it,
humming in my shallow hold,
coiling up and springing forward,
breaching predetermined mold.
Its beaming heartbeat is familiar,
its promise always seems so bright,
but then it flutters from my senses,
and breaks free into the night.
