Snow Globe of the Insane Mind
Mind like a snow globe.
Chaotic memories and thoughts
swirl, tumble and mix
above and around a false reality.
Seen from all sides by the minds eye.
It cannot focus on just one.
There are no compartments
to place the memories.
No order for the thoughts.
Only when left alone
untouched, does it settle.
A drug induced sleep.
But still there is chaos,
each time of settlement
it is different and unique.
All it takes to wake
the snow globe, is a touch.
Thoughts fly once more.
