Acrostic Distractions
Rupture the Stream of Consciousness
1st Distraction)
Disastrously
Insistent on
Such
Terrible
Retention--
Allowing
Consciousness
To
Insist
On
Nothing
2nd Distraction)
Dilly-dallying with all due diligence over
Ill-favored inches of intelligence inspired the
Serpentine hiss of superfluous subtleties
To try and tease-out treacherously into well-laid traps
Rhyming words rotating to some rhythm.
An action is always amputated by other answers (ooh look, a squirrel!)
Commented upon casually by split cerebral cascades
'Til untainted trembling is tuned to the telling
Immaculately intent inch by inch
On one single thought
Nevermore.
Final Distraction)
Deeper, far deeper,
Into the
Silence of a
Tilting mind which is
Returning to
A better place:
Counting every breath
To attempt
Illumination
Of the
Now
About the Creator

sunt lacrimae rerum et mentem mortalia tangunt
There are tears of things, and mortal objects touch the mind.
-Virgil Aeneid I.462
