I’ve got a big heart
I think she weighs more than my brain
but, please don’t try to make light of her
Though she may not brim with
logic, she harbors a mind all her own
Remaining steady in rhythm; always
anchored, in a place of serenity
Her continual beatings teach
of giving, without reservation
nor hesitation; to expand
I’ve got a big heart
Open the windows of your shuttered mind
to the unencumbered breeze of fresh thought
Let it gently spread; swirling through half-opened
doors into darkened corners to remove
the stale, stagnant, settled dust of the past
allowing for very good use of the space
A muse amuses
sometimes uses
even abuses
an open mind
But she’s most unkind
leaving one in a bind
when off she goes
We must face the woes
all up in throes
our hearts attacked
thoughts gutted and hacked
We admit we need her as we beg her to come back
Round, round, round; outside, then in
so this revolving life does spin
all to the tunes of their coming in
Filling up, filling in
every space inside my head
until it weighs a lot like lead
mixed up with a bit of dread
from things said, to the things unsaid
just never what you had in mind
though like a love-lost fool, you’d pined
for the times before, left behind
when everyone seemed more of one kind
Round, round, round; inside, then away
leaving you sad-songed from the fray
Through the door to find the way
a bit dizzy, you pick up the day
What’s in your head
No wonder it aches
Your pillow can’t hold it
and shoulders do break
Clear your mind (he says)
There’s erasers, bulldozers, explosions
Speculate on the method, since
some could cause a bit of erosion
Once you’ve got it figured out
you can then, go on to bed
where you will have made room for
the lovely, buried dreams, still
waiting inside your head
It’s hard to let go of someone
of course, letting go means
you thought that, once
you held them near
