The brilliance of my fleeting mind
  Chimes like voices in foreign caves
  It chimes in time - takes me where I'm going
  Alone my fleeting mind is knowing
  Believe it when I pin it down
  
  And that's not hard to forget
  With my hands upon my knees
  You will steal from my fleeting mind
  
  Remember all out words
  They are just smoke-rings in the rain
  That's just a poem in brilliant places
  But poets, they are too grim
  They steal like party thieves
  From crowded rooms
  To rhyme their homes with better places
  
  The brilliance of their minds
  Will seek with never knowing
  Alone my fleeting mind is knowing
  Believe it when I pin it down
  
  And that's not hard to forget
  With my thoughts like sifting leaves
  I believe in my fleeting mind
