If My Feet Matched My Mind
My brain is buzzing
always looking for something
big or small
to keep it flying, floating
never resting
I devour information
from morning to night
The hunger never pauses
the torment always there
tingling the back of my neck
My body may be still
but thoughts race on
Miles and miles
The places I could reach
if my feet matched my mind
No medal I earn or words of praise
shine bright enough
to illuminate the path
where accomplishment
and contentment always outpace me

This poem rolls off the tongue very well, and the first stanza does a good job of drawing the reader in. Nice work.
