the pencil!

the pencil!

A Poem by andrew mitchell
"

just nonsense really!

"
Sharpened are my thoughts
When turned rotations
Peel back to the core.
Disembarked are shavings
Old ideas , discarded.
My thoughts ready, pointed;
Graphite in words
Take on the world,
Starting with paper.

nice metaphor here...well carried out...

our thoughts sharpen just enough to scratch them down on paper with a certain amount of clarity.

thank you kind sir! Always appreciated your reviews Jacob
Ooh, this isn't nonsense. This seems to be about focus. I need to focus more. I'm too sentimental... Thanks for the thoughts, Andrew.
