I visualize thoughts as a constant flow of knowing, yet not knowing the things that i know. a harmonic train of connected words flowing past my brain hoping to be heard. As if I could just reach Into the air and pull those words to me from that stream somewhere. Follow me on FB, Instagram, Twitter: WVPoetrygirl www.amazon.com/author/anitaelam Thanks - Anita Elam

Hi Anita!
As a psych nerd, my first thought when reading this was the term “stream of consciousness” – this piece fits the concept well. (If anyone knew what that was without googling it, let’s be friends.)
I also love how you’ve taken that abstract feeling of writing “in the zone” and turned it in to a poetic piece with a musical quality. If I had to describe what it’s like to be a writer at the best of times, “Visualized Thoughts” says enough. Awesome job!
“Stream of Consciousness” that’s a good comparison…..not always conscious (aware) of the thoughts though, lurking just below the surface, almost in a state between conscious and unconscious thought…..definitely a stream though, for sure. I will look that phrase up in psych terms! Thanks for the feedback! (I love learning new things, especially where the mind is concerned).
Well worded and written, enjoyed reading ..thanks.
