Shakedown


on the quarterdeck of the mind
we survey our thoughts that are
quietly standing at parade rest,
down the ranks we walk looking
for gigs soon to be removed...
the wooden deck is easy to stand
upon during our inspection as it
will take more than a few minutes
to complete...  our assembled
ideas rub elbows with each other
as they patiently wait for the
signals to reach their destination,
rearranged and edited, words and
phrases report to their respective
duty stations as the battles around
them continue...  anchors aweigh
sends them off to sea sometimes
prematurely and without proper
training but those who have the
courage to endure brave the seas
returning home with experiences.
