Analysis of SHAKE MY MIND
mad hippie poet 1974 (new jersey)
I want to take these words of mine and write them in the bright blue sky while asking and answering why. My eyes are tired more now that I sleep when I'm awake. My bones are cold I'm starting to shake, so I turn off my mind just in time to watch the furnace burn the coal from my soul to keep myself warm.
