SOLUTION SPACE

Each time I am stuck up
doing or thinking something

not knowing what to do next
or losing trust in the self

my own notions, my world view
I look for someone to talk over

or sit still for hours or minutes
turn pages of a book to get

the right idea, the rare insight
fume, fumble, fail, and do autopsy

decode messages on corpse of ideas
and lo, the world changes in a second
