Evolution

Ideas and untold tales dying
On hundreds of sheets
Of paper separate from

One
Another

Some lost
In train stations
Supermarkets
Trolleys

Others lie
Between random sheets
In books buckets
Cupboards old
Games and wallets
All waiting
To be remembered by

The mind that saw them

This mind comes
It remembers
Writing caring loving them

Feeding them new words
Every day
Holding them gently

Though it touches them
And sees

Unfinished
Raw sentences
Words
Wasted pages

That must all be thrown away
