I will cast my net
Across the barren plains of my imagination
Until it encompasses my world
In a filigree of hope and silver
I will pull it in thought over thought
And corral my ideas as they come
reluctantly
Tumbling one into another
Like so many iridescent fish
That will slip away
If I do not cast my net
