Sam, I don't know your personal history but you have asked for prayers and thoughts and to you I give those freely. I hope you have no pain, loads of love and everything that can heal you.

Don't fret too much. This is just a passing phase. Excellent piece, though.

Just a thought.... has brought all these creative curves out, and you've turned a  fret into a  wonderfully poetic teaser.

Are we a bit flippant here?

Well, Sam, you've certainly inspired some extreme preponderousness in yours truly.  I loved the twisting, flipping, mind-bending of this.

Well said . . . fretting is a full-time occupation for me . . . I'm glad to hear that you're eating . . .

oh! sammy sam sam   you draw out the fatigue so well. every word, lingering on the theme of pursuing something so ungauranteed. you string your thoughts so well, around the very processes we go through thinking about something to think about.  been in that mire for the last 4 days!!!! should i quit? i am thinking about not thinking of it

You know I love all your work. This particularly resonated with me. I am tired of being tired!

I understand this very well. Latly...I need sleep.

Tired of thinking
I really loved this poem  and the interplay of anomaly and other rhyming words through out your discourse in blank verse with rhyme and a message.  Rest fair one and don't worry.  Worry is a waste of energy and drains our lives of prescious energy. michaudblaine123

Beautifully said Sammy... years ago a good friend that  now happens to be a big shot in Irak gave me a book entitled: " Don't worry about small things( and they are all small things)" - It was the best thing I ever read, not because the amazing writing in it  but because it brought the message to me that truly to "fret" or worry about things is fruitless and futile.  Your poem is amazing darling , same message but so poetically expressed.  xoxoxo  luuve ya

Do not worry and fret over the things you can change not. The brain of a coot is not an apt description of yours LOL Good old Oxford word finder is a grand help in the puzzle of the correct meaning of the images from your mountain top . Most honourable wordsmith Shelly /sam.Applause from my hands!

Brood on, sam.
Your brooding leads to mind bending poetry.

Fret Not!
You have made good use of your talent in writing, and the message is clear. Thanks!

I like to sit and stare out the window
and leave my mind free to think on things
of intellectual pursuit but,
not of worries, no frets, no anxieties,
just pleasant wanderings that finally alight
on something that stirs my soul to action.
