A kernel of an Idea
a kernel of an idea showed up and gave me a wink
was it my muse? I did not know what to think
a bit confused, but of course, I always have ink.
I began to write, and my notebook gave me a whistle and a blink.

The Kernel of You...

A nugget of reality
Erstwhile
Error-prone
Erratic and evocative of bitter heart’s pain
The latter is the stuff of dreams
Another you that even you don’t know
