Cofiscated

Full of ideas,
so many,
that stopping,
was not an option.

 But enthusiasm breeds carelessness,

So when the sirens began to blare,
and the police marched in,
floodlights blocking every escape route
there was nothing to do,
but raise your hands.

Now,
morning has come,
and the inmate has been released.

But it is too late.
All the late night ideas and imaginings,

are gone.
