Sounds of Scribbles – v5

Echoing sounds of scribbles,
Jots of thoughts in my journal,
Seeing some words crossed out,
Others inserted, added, forced,
How does editing sound, frenetic;
Illegible words, random thoughts,
Scratching out the rhyme,
The rhythm, fighting the meter…
 
Murmurs on the pages,
Lines through the jetsam,
The flotsam of thought,
Like word balloons, crossed out
Words of motion, precision,
Snapping to attention,
Coming into being, alive,
On the printed page…
 
Catching myself in mid-thought,
Erasures like sandpaper.
Maybe a planer, deeper,
Milling raw oak into boards;
Fighting the knots in my prose,
Seeking to capture a moment,
Conjure an image, gossamer,
On the written page…
