Dragonfly Thoughts
A Poem
The words
t h e y s t a g g e r
Caught in my throat in my brain in my fingers…
Not able
to fly….to sing….to glide like
Yesterday? A week ago? A year…?
Caught in my anxiety in my pain in my worry…
Stunted, short, stopping and starting Jumping, hopping, skipping from one thought
t o t h e n e x t
Like a dragonfly
jumping,
hopping,
skipping on light, transparent wings
Landing lightly Quivering wings Leaping loftily
My thoughts, dragonflies.
I need a net.
