The Winding Mind


I muddled this up,
big time

and I got so fatigued,
so quickly

and I got prickly in here
and I was feeling sorry for myself

just like the Underground Man with his lantern and his afterthoughts

so I talked about everything that was digging into my innards,
what innards were left of my pretzel

so I took my unfortunate shoes and my unfortunate thoughts and I wandered through no man's land
because that is where all the best decisions are made

and I got so engrained in my prosaic thoughts,
so down in my dumps

until I cobbled my way down the cobblestone
to find the cobbler standing there

there,
in the light at the end of the tunnel
