Fly Away Words


I reached with my mind 

 to cup the words 

before they vanished 

but that was eight hours ago ~

after a Monday life at home,

morning thoughts had been 

  left to hang out alone, 

   swept under the rug, 

    drifted out an open door, 

     swirled down a drain, 

untethered words flying away

 until and when time to return.


“Where does a thought go when it’s forgotten?”

~ Sigmund Freud
