love the image of "her mind a box of melted crayons" ~ I'm wishing readers were given more clues for the rest of the poem so we could truly appreciate the metaphor.

A very thought-provoking poem, gw. It's like a movie that has an open ending ... lots to think about. BB

like John i'll hazard a guess though not sure, you are as sharp as a razor my friend. she works as fast as quick silver, her mind can take no more, its gone like gushy melted crayons, yet magic wands her way, her hands rake over this vista of fire, another issue for her, and rake over the coals. HUGS AND BLESSINGS, ANYWHERE NEAR....... Jennifer.
