Endless [Autobiography (Saturday Writing...

In waking, at dawn, I realize

The flow has begun

before the risen sun

a horizon of battle yet to be won

From deep inside, I feel them rise

A torrent of words,

they rage, undeterred

marching into sublime, from the absurd

Images swirl behind my eyes

Stories unfold

some timid, some bold

all of them loud with demand to be told

∞

Words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words,

Clear-spoke or blurred

fight to be heard

with peaceful silence as the prize.

Better just get them written so you can have some peace. :)

I wish!

I agree with Pam.

At least get some of them down so you can submit to TSII.

I liked that last stanza and the way you set it apart.

Thanks for taking the SatWE challenge.

I think you are a frustrated writer. Just do it. This is a nice piece of work.

Thanks Ms. L.P. Hope you're feeling more the thing, today.
