The Mind is Small
written by: Leigh Cuthbert
The mind is small—
the control board
for all that manifests.
Power to imagine,
power to learn,
power to destroy.
Self-destruction.
A loafing,
anxiety addict
with no recovery.
Like the tide,
it comes in waves—
stronger,
bigger,
with more intent,
eroding the beauty.
Adrift in my thoughts,
searching for solid ground—
a wanting
to be grounded,
safe,
happy.
One day,
maybe.
