The context of my view begins with
Questions of what to do and then
A subject appears 
It becomes all I can hear 
Obsessed with varieties of views
I dislodge the contents, look for hidden clues Scatter the peeled parts in my fertile mind 
I wait for the feeling sparks
and then begin to make
a mark from my heart."
