Broken Thought
A carnival of linguistic parallels
celebrate at the ball of my pen.
Where elastic ideas are
stretched…
around yesterday’s hypothesis
around today’s theory
around tomorrow’s cognition
I calculate,
concentrate,
deliberate and
think until
Strands of comprehension snap
I perceive only inky, illiterate hiccups
stuttering on lines of hyphenated ellipsis’
Staggering…
Confused by logic
Bemused by logic
perplexed by logic
The babble of broken thought,
an onslaught of sensible gibberish
That says nothing but says it all…
