Filling pages has never been so easy.

It's as if you're a key to the door

Of my mind.

A barrage of stored-up ideas come

Tumbling out,

Clamoring to be made sense of.

I pick my way through the rubble,

Selecting a dream here,

An idea there.

Pieces to a puzzle

Parts to a story

I gather my thoughts in jars, and,

Dipping my pen,

Spill them on forgivingly blank pages.

Nothing is as wonderful

As opening a book

And finding it filled with

Myself.
