Itch Poem by Mary Champion

Itch

I have this longing,
it could even be a need,
to reach back in time
into the ancient darkness
where part of me is rooted.

I feel its presence
and I sense its importance.
Its looming image
is haunting my awareness,
but it is out of focus.

Bubbling under
the surface of consciousness
it cannot break through
until I lift the mind-block
that frustrates its passage.
