Sunday Scribblings #18 - Collectors
I've had others try to force collections on me.
Like Royal Doulton china dolls.
I have two "Jennifers" and one bridal doll.
I hate them.
They are far too dainty, far too expensive, and far too impractical.
These days I collect ideas.
I think. And think. And don't stop thinking.
The ideas I'm collecting need to be better organized.
So that they can become permanent, and I don't lose them.
When they vanish from my mind, through my swiss cheese memory,
I can't ingest and absorb them.
These ideas are buuuuzzzzzziiiiinnggg all around me.
An angry swarm of bees.
Thoughts, judgements, opinions, belief, views.
Slow down.
Lentement.
Lento.
Tardus.

Amazing. 'swiss cheese memory' is a hazard, for sure! Enjoyed your post.
ReplyDeleteVery neat--I mentioned collecting words and stories in my response to the prompt. Cool to see someone else with a similar thought...
