Intrusive Thoughts

Intruders
Invasive interlopers
Encroaching on the edge
Of thought
Prowlers invading
The sanctity of the soul
Clumsy burglars
Violating the boundaries
Of whispered secrets
Purring cat burglars
Seeking comfort

Yes these kinds of thought both interrupt and can also inspire poetry. Cool poem!

hmmm... sound like what I've been complaining about. Encroachers poaching... definitely an unwanted invading species. Lovin' it, John. Validation code is AAI Ironic.
