Cream No Sugar

Hidden in musty dusty folds of ragged thoughts I've sought to hide Unbidden and driven by emotions chained in dungeons deep and wide Bursting free from no sensation breaking into concentration They fly and burst asunder as they thunder on the jetties of my mind Cacophonic colored chatter caught in chaos shed to scatter Like the ashes of a warrior how could it really matter What’s first wrung from hidden childhood fears May not sound as jarring after lo these many years But the trains of thought I ride carry weight to hold aside As they clatter through the stations un expressed Rattled reasons Battered seasons misled missions Deliberate decisions carom through silly severed sessions As I contemplate concessions to a tired weary mind Another cup of coffee couldn’t hurt
