The Best Poem Of Renee Von Paschen

Words Are Lurking

Words are lurking in the
nooks and crannies of my cranium.

They wash away my thoughts
with a whoosh like a wave.

In their wake
a numb feeling follows.

Ties are loosened and
barriers fall.

Perhaps there's something to say
after all.

(Published in Metamorphoses, MA/USA,2010)
