Thesis blues

i know exactly where to go
but how it is
i am to get there,
that, alas, i do not know

i see the sentences before me clear as day
but when i reach to grab
and pin them down
they turn shy and slip away

i try to catch them with my butterfly net
but every time i take a swing
the thoughts dissolve before my eyes
and hollow air is all i get

i have all the puzzle's pieces
but can not make them fit
there is no picture on this box
to help compose my thesis
