When the night thoughts flee

When the night thoughts flee

Too quick to take a note, but
one thing, a fine line on the word
rolling in the misty field;
what is it?
would I allow the bullying?
or, is it the insinuating heat wave
of the rock behind the boulder?
Simmer, resign;
I would not dwell on it;
go on; each moment is a gold,
now; the fragile hour.

Distraction

Distraction

I don't post often on Facebook,
but sometimes, I do several
in a flash. A girl would point out:
"Distracted again. Stop and focus
on your great dream."

Is she my fan? or, just pissed off
by the didactic line?
I would not ask, for silence is better
than unnecessary scene;
avoid confrontation--
here I go again, being moral;
rather not post this.

Once in a while, I would like to be
free from pen; dance on a blank page
of poems and stories;
do banter and laugh,
which wakes the creative elf.

yet, the glimpse of light at the edge
of the word; thanks for the tip.
