False Opening Poem by Carolyn Brunelle

False Opening



Open...
a computer file
then
open up the mind;
the words begin to come.
They hit the screen;
as keys clickety-click
and a stanza is formed.
Wait...
for a thought,
a feeling,
a sound,
something seen or remembered.
Fingers steady,
senses enlivened;
at the ready,
try to push away the brain clouds
but alas...
the mind is a total blank
the last line is a dead end.
