James Marshall Goff Poet Free verse

Rollercoaster Mind

My
Mind
Melts
Orange

Scattering butterflies
Singing with iridescent
Chameleons
First aqua green, then
Revolution

Clubbing twilight with both
Fists, gulped by gallons
Of planets

Parading
As thoughtless trees

Overbearing junipers
Crowding the galaxy

With shrinking
Wisdom

Unafraid of red
Ants

Colonizing advanced
Mountaintops

Millions
Of miles

Inside

My

Mind
