Write a poem
Write a song
Song of hope
Song of peace
Peace of heart
Peace of mind
Mind your manners
Mind your charges
Charges onward
Charges out
Out of time
Out of patience
Patience is a virtue
Patience is a mark
Mark my words
Mark the time
Time enough for love
Time enough for you
You mean the world
You mean nothing
Nothing is good
Nothing is pain
Pain is fleeting
Pain is permanent
Permanent problem
Permanent solution
Solution for ills
Solution for chills
Chills to the bone
Chills while alone
Alone at home
Alone and prone
Prone on the floor
Prone to lie
Lie athwart
Lie abed
Abed and sick
Abed asleep
Asleep and dreaming
Asleep and turning
Turning off
Turning on
On the horse again
On to the next
Next to you
Next door
Door ajar
Door to the stars
Stars
Ajar
[Thus I begin a new set of poetry experiments. I have not yet organized a new set of themes, but I will strive to work within a wide variety of forms over the next x months]
