I sit in the dark late night
Waiting
Casting my baited thought lines out into my subconscious
Into the darkness around me
Waiting 
For something to inside me
Or outside me in the dark beyond my vision
Waiting
For my open
Welcoming mind to connect
To suddenly SPARK!
Like a personal 
Big Bang
AN IDEA!

(Slowly reel it in kicking and screaming 
Pull it into the boat of my mind
Remove the bait and ….
Embrace it
Cuddle 
Feed it my attention
Nurture it
Empower it
And help it grow
A living thing growing 
Of words…
