" JUST THINKING "

" JUST THINKING "

This is a rewrite from an earlier post
That needed a photo, just found;

JUST THINKING....

Sometimes I stare down at icy water, and feel
The cold
I do it so often I don't think I know, numb, anymore
I watch the flow, and combine my being
With the movement of the waters
And anticipate the rush of death, I'm in the moment
My pulse racing toward the idea of it
It's so strange to consider
That I actually consider, these bizarre illusions
The consciousness is not literally
Connected to brain activity
I feel the COLD in my mind
As I slow into nothingness and begin to dream
Of nothing at all
When suddenly, you touch me from behind
And I find, myself, on the railing of a bridge
Just thinking........

Tony Taylor (Chicago)

I love all of it and especially the way it ended.

."it's so strange to consider, that I actually consider, these bizarre illusions" .....resonates...I wonder if we have all had these illusions...I know I have

.  "when suddenly you touch me..............just thinking"...then it just takes a little something to switch us back...

awesome Tony!!!

yes, fortunately or unfortunately I know exactly what you are referring to.  Hence, my nonsense play with words in my poem "a fine line".  That's what I was referring to.  It only takes a brief second to make a switch.  Have a great Sat!
