Mind, Mind

In the middle of every mind,

Obscured from the side by fear

Or insecurity, is a clearing where

She works on burying those thoughts

In the back of my mind. She only

Buries their negative desire, and their bad influence.

She packs the brain tight around

Their dark aura & they shake

Like a beast ready to kill.

She makes me feed them positive thoughts

Twice a day for one full year: self-worth,

Bits of fulfillment. Then she takes me to the brain.

She shows me the world and what it’s worth

Inside her golden statue of memories.

She hands me a memento.
