I am in two minds

I don't pretend to be a poet but every now and then words come that I like to write down. These ones came in response to reading about the workings of the brain and trying to answer the question - is there an optimal state of mind in which one is more creative and if there is what is it? More on this in future blogs.

TWO MINDS

I am in two minds.

A day to day mind - practical -

of timetables and necessary things.

My other mind - of possibility and potential -

of thought from somewhere else

without obvious source, often random.

My day to day mind - safe and thorough.

My other mind involves risk

- an unfinished mind.

Alone I spend more time in my other mind

dreaming and scheming

but that's often where it ends.

What if I lived more in my other mind and

enlisted the help of my day to day mind.

How would life be different?

I also started series of art works with the same theme.
