"Appropriation"

a comment
dashed
against the rocks of my mind
spreads into waves
that
reverbrate
into words
that aren't words
that were in the comment
and a new idea dawns
rising slowly over the
ruins
of the old cityline of ideas
a winged creature
rising from the ashes of itself
to itself
through itself
and creating
a new being
gently suspended
in the air
