Thinking: Always exercising, never resting
Emmalyn Erisman

Poignantly, I avoid thinking.

The responsibility of thinking, the

Weight of thought一the pressure

on my skull is

well over 50 pounds.


I’m in need of a spotter.

Holy Spirit, watch out for me,

Keep me in your care.

I so often get lost…


Metaphorically, theoretically

一all the -oreticallies...


Transforming my brain waves into

an infinite loop of Maze,

Tailing questions endlessly,

Ever-circling yet never catching the answers.


Tirelessly,

illogically,

aimlessly?


Pretending to be trailblazers

of Original thought,

these deceivers loop and loop and loop一

I am constantly pushed to my limit;

Until the reps and weight are too much;

muscles are maxed out and sore.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable.
