The Wasteland

The Wasteland
Filling in the blank, white spaces of the world with words!

Lake Scissors

Inspired by “The Lake Isle of Innisfree” by W. B. Yeats

An image of a lake slices my thoughts,
Halving my inner psyche.
Pristine coolness pours, permeates deep, deeper,
Longing to be freed.

Thirsting after the lake wedged within my mind,
A gritty feel between my toes.
My spirit separates from corporeal cares,
Floats on a liquid breeze.

Suddenly wake up drowning in tidbits of ripples;
The biting edge of want snipsnipsnipping away.
My body fights the flooding flow of pure yearning;
My brain gasping
