SPEAK YOUR MIND

    Now, let me introduce you to your mind,
    And let’s find out the ways that it’s inclined.
    The best way that I know’s to take a pen
    In hand, sitting in readiness, and then
    Attend to subtle whisperings in your head,
    Transcribing them, then seeing what you’ve said.

    “I don’t know what I think until I see
    What I have said” is no absurdity,
    For suddenly what was unconscious rises
    Into words revealing its surprises:
    The very act of verbalizing shows
    What otherwise your mind might not disclose.
