Fiction

It appears I have found my brain,

I’ve fallen back in love with learning,

Back in love with loving,

Back in time with living.

 

Stagnation,

Broken into miniature pieces as,

I pick up a book.

 

I finish it,

Begin another,

Not caring on subject, fact or,

Fiction… friction.

 

Occurring in the dark,

As it joins with my imagination.

Fiction fusion

Fiction fission

Fiction’s facts

And facts of fiction.

 

Nothing on its own,

Bound by poetic diction.

whether it's fact or fictitious nonsense, it's all worth writing down. I'm sure it must mean something to someone.!
Stagnation can be a sod tho'.
Thanks, i enjoyed reading this, reading's good for the soul.x Janet.

A fantastic poem Jordan. I really like the format of the poem. I think having stagnation on one line works really well.
