Too Short of a Time
-Time's a ticking, minutes pass by.
It's hindering my psychic, I do fear.
A blip, a word, two, then three words leak out-
Raining on my windowpanes,
-A brain hiccup, come on Connie, think-think,
Nerve-racking this 5 minute poem, but wait, flowing again-
Sweetly serenading me to sleep,
And washing this troubled day away.
Lighting strike, rumble, boom, crash,
-No more loose thoughts tumbling out.
My brain has downshifted to a lower IQ.
Challenged and frustrated with this timed poem.
