David Byrne Poet I do not know?

This

I never seem 
To stop –
Thinking
Day in, day out
And then,
I try to remember
What’s it all about?

Exhaustion only 
Brings my sleep
A state I want
The most!
Questions, I have
Questions –
Answers that I doubt?

Feelings always
Feelings-
Changing like the wind
All over,
Supposing, asking, sensing 
Again –
Just shut up and shout!

Carolyn Devonshire July 10, 2010 at 7:43 AM I tend to overthink things, too, David, and these thoughts can make for sleepless nights. Really relate to your thoughts in this compelling poem! Love, Carolyn

Caroline Cécile Delacroix July 9, 2010 at 9:21 PM Often things go that way like a time of uncertainty before something great comes about. I think the whole world is in this kind of place right now. We can all relate. Great write, David! And thanks for your great comments on my latest.
