he is chasing
a moment of brilliance
chasing
a sparkle
a shine
that surprised a gleam
on the horizon
so far away
so near
he could almost reach out
to touch
~
a moment of
thought bright and clear
he
is chasing the story
of how pen
can create poem
chasing inspiration
a telling
an idea
the seed
of a tale
~
he is chasing
I am chasing
an intuitive moment
my own special something
chasing
seeking
the air
a feeling in the air
the taste
a taste
that burned
of the fire
right before him
just there before me
so near
it is close
so far away
it’s so very far away
he could almost hold it
I almost grasped it – once
in the palm
in the palm
of his hand
of my hand
