Know that feeling
Of being punched in the brain?
One difficulty is, for the longest time
You cannot find any words
To describe what it feels like
Till in a dark room
You stumble on something by mistake
And hit your head on a wall
‘Ah yes, thank you, that was the phrase
I was looking for- ‘punched in the brain’
A loss of words and sensations
And a complete loss of motivation
To try to find them
Oh just let it be
‘Fu*k you,’ says the wall
‘Thanks fu*k you too’, I return the greeting
‘Whatever that means in your context,’
‘Cant you walk straight?’ it asks indignant
‘Wait, I can lie down straight..
Let me try that..
Oh yes, that feels ok
Some intensive lying down
And some dispassionate doing nothing
And the last thing I want disturbing me right now
are thoughts of writing a frigging poem about this’
