time, vague, memory, connect


Sometimes my mind seems terribly vague,
I see dots in my head
But they don’t connect
Into thoughts that are fluid
Enough to convey,
I sputter and spew, but only flustered words fall.

Frustrated
Weepy
Embarrassed
Not me
I figure by now
We’re all in a tizzy
Flustered and hectic
Twirling and dizzy

The world’s spinning crazy
No wonder a memory’s so hard to find
By the time I retrieve it,
It’s rolled off to the other side.

Sometimes my mind seems terribly clear
I see dots in my head
And they DO connect
Then I’m aware
So keenly aware
Of how often
I sputtered and spewed and flustered words fell.
