Thought Before The Thought

Thought Before The Thought

A Poem by Earl Schumacker
"

Didactic poem- Words without meaning have the same unknown origins.

"

Swallow the oceans in one breath

Consume the clouds and sky of contents

Exhale the birds and fish into the distillation

Remember, they are bad for the digestion

Pray for them since birds don't think and fish only drink

Cast your eyes into the suns reflections bent

Calm the moment thought upon that comes

Keep it close when concentrating sublimation purity

Warm your words conjured up in the light of day

Let them settle into one from unknown origins

Emerge with it from thoughts disclosures

Keep one for yourself perhaps the first

Divulge it to someone on first reflections pause

Display it on the shores of reasons solid beach

Open your mouth before the thought escapes

Deliver it from evil as from the tongue

Let it fly free butterfly like outside as air

Feel it before it leaves never to return again

Release it before if begins to make some sense
