Discordant thoughts
Tumbling over each other;
Spinning,
Dividing, uniting,
Dissipating into the abyss.
Images-
Recurrent(RecurrentRecurrentRecurrent);
Boomerangs.
Each lap around my consciousness
It’s become a little bit different-
A little more detailed.
A little more vague.
Tripping over theoretical situations
That only exist in a land of implausibility
Choking on words that are smothered by my tongue
Like alphabet soup.
Spouting nonsensical metaphors
With the spirit of a witty rebuttal.
Intangible almosts that resonate within me,
Yet I cannot touch nor describe them nor decipher their meaning
Emotions undefined;
Unversed lyrics.
A cacophony of ideas
Slathered with asymptote adjectives;
Word salad.
Disconnected from the physical world
Where an apple in hand two seconds ago
Has been lost for years
And the hunger I feel is no longer for food…

Wait, what was I talking about?
