Quills in the Cracks



My thoughts meander
over Silver trails
left by bleary ambition.
Without a harvest,
I squash them.
They become distorted,
almost flatlined 
into thoughtlessness
until they become the quills
in the remaining cracks of memory.
Hopeful bones of destiny
are riding upon a symphony of egos
as I look for the Sparkle in a Song
that kindles
the embrace
of new worlds.

"Hopeful bones of destiny
are riding upon a symphony of egos"

= 1 word BRILLIANT!

I love lines like that
that slam the reader's
perspective on things &
life in general
