wakes you in the still of night
distracts you at work
overwhelms during sex
mocks while watching
torments when all alone

    Very clever, if a slightly circular argument :-)

    It’ll do that–over and over again…

    much like your meditation poem – thinking seems to get in the way of everything :)

    having said that, one of your lines is something I tend to think about rather a lot ;)

    the link was very moving and poignant and could have been my words :(

    Laughing. Good take on the prompt – I think the third line threw me clear off…

    Reminds me of another line my Dad always uses…If someone asks him “What do you think?” he replies “I try not to, it gives me a headache!” My daughter once repeated that to one of her teachers in elementary school LOL!

    very clever, certainly an unwelcome intruder at times!

  16. 2009 July 15
