'How My Mind Works'

A simple word

or phrase is all,

-inflection, tone and such

will change it,

associations rattle

'round my head,

and something

in there

has to

re-arrange it.



Like this poem,

I think:

"find a clever way to

'finish it"

and: 'try to augment

not diminish it"

Next thing I know

I'm thinking of a

"Finnish hit"

Then suddenly

I'm at the end

and left with


'Finnishit.'
