I Think, I Thought
When thinking of thoughts
We think we already thought
Out loud, we might say
The other night on replay
When we say it today
Maybe said, the other day
Now, but not before
Before, but not now
Forever, I will now know
For now, I will never know
My thoughts, I think
I'm thinking, I thought
I think, I thought
My thought, I think
Don't think of thoughts
You think, I thought
When thinking about, thoughts before
I thought we should, just think right now
I sort of think.
I sort of thought.
We think we already thought
Out loud, we might say
The other night on replay
When we say it today
Maybe said, the other day
Now, but not before
Before, but not now
Forever, I will now know
For now, I will never know
My thoughts, I think
I'm thinking, I thought
I think, I thought
My thought, I think
Don't think of thoughts
You think, I thought
When thinking about, thoughts before
I thought we should, just think right now
I sort of think.
I sort of thought.

RULE CHANGES, EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 2, 2019: As of this date, this competition’s rules have been amended to level the playing field for all. 1) One entry per human…no pseudonyms. 2) No prose poems or extreme (profane) erotic content will be allowed. 3) This will be a “silent thread” competition from this point on. I will transfer the comments I made by prior entries to the entrant’s individual pages. Reminders: 1st, 2nd & 3rd places will be awarded (by host and a “ghost judge”, who will assist with selection. I apologize for my inexperience and naiveté; I will try to make everyone happy and ask for your indulgence. Please PM me, if you have any question.. Thank you!
Thick With This...
This t h i c k n e s s…it’s a sickness that thoroughly haunts me,
With a thousand thrilling theatrics through and through,
And therewith in the pith of these themes who’d thought,
That the affable aesthetics would methodically taunt me too.
Therefore I find these thoughts so soothing and therapeutic,
Unearthing enthralling myths as if seeking a path to the truth,
Thus I must theorize, or perhaps hypothesize that going forth,
I am a thespian in the theater of the mind to my withered youth.
With every breath I slowly wreathe between tongue and teeth,
Seething with thirst immersed in depth of the sleuthing thread,
I feel this thesis throbs, though smoothly with thwacking thuds,
Tethering the nether part of my mouth and through to my head.
I think I’m thorny but this thingamajig is north of ordinary,
Amid a throng of thrusting verses thrashing in a chorus,
Bathing in the wealth of ideas and thoughts altogether,
With a strength three times t h i c k e r than my thesaurus.
Don’t dither and come hither,
It’s a threatening deathly thunder you’ll both love and loath,
Then let me spread, or rather slather the word so t h i c k l y,
With width and girth the thriving idiom is primed for growth.
T h i c k.
