A little twist

To try & try

& once again

a little twist

a different note

dress it up

in a different coat

sneak up on it

from behind

perhaps

with luck

to find

a new way

in your mind

Catch those thoughts

those unruly birds

calm them down

until they're words

or let them go

spinning, soaring

way up high

fading far away

in the sky
