Fleeting Mind

The brilliance of my fleeting mind

Chimes like voices in foreign caves

it chimes in time - takes me where I'm going

Alone my fleeting mind is knowing

believe it when I pin it down

And that's not hard to forget

with my hands upon my knees

You will steal from my fleeting mind

Remember all our words they are just smoke rings in the rain:

that's just a poem in brilliant places

but poets, they are too grim

they steal like party thieves from crowded rooms

to rhyme their homes with better places

The brilliance of their minds

will seek with never knowing

alone my fleeting mind is knowing

believe it when I pin it down

And that's not hard to forget

with my thought like sifting leaves

I believe in my fleeting mind.
