Mishmash

Mishmash of thoughts, smashing potatoes, brightened with butter and lots of salt. Wherever was i, thoughtless, scattering, smishing and smattering what ought to be sound, fearless and earth shattering— a cause. Finally, the mishmash of thoughts, lined up, tear down the page… all the rage, totally engaged, a symphonic sage, a madman’s parade, a sword twisted— a poem wielded and waged. 9/18/2021

Love it! Such wonderful Muse you have. The creative process, what goes into a poem, and what finally comes out -- sometimes not to us as important as the process itself. Fabulous use of words and imagery.

Sometimes a mish mash of thoughts if strung along just so, can turn into a beautiful poem. Thanks for connecting the dots dear Kim, I enjoyed your creative pen tonight :)

Hello Kim ... I never thought of mashed potato and scrambled words resemble each other, until we as poets unscramble the words into fine poetry - thank you Kim - Lindsay
