Unwinding My Thoughts Poem by Romeo Della Valle

Unwinding My Thoughts

Rating: 5.0


Setting down with paper and a pen,
Carefully unwinding my thoughts,
Faintly hearing myself think-I listen
And find the tape is somehow caught...

I press play, fast forward, rewind, eject,
Pause- elementary techniques
Attempted before tossing the subject,
Unraveling the mind's mystique...

Disappointed, I change the recording
To another I have memorized
Completely, effortlessly affording
Me a ballad by memory catalyzed...

yes, i agree with Marilyn... i love how you make your mind seem like a DVD player, something that's concept everyone can understand, and you make that relate to your mind, and your thoughts, in such a manner that i have no words to describe how i feel. thankyou

Ah yes, the perfect way to describe the thoughts and life of a writer. Excellent. I put a 10 but it does not show up. Warm Wishes, Marilyn
