Eight Word Challenge: Making Sense of Meaning

A horde of words and thoughts shackled by lost meaning loiter in my mind memory cartridge wizened by time elicit mordacious statements Wondering, asking a trifle for your thoughts eh' Such foolish banter Written on March 22, 2017, for the 8-Word Challenge contest by John Hamilton

Hey PPD, sorry left you out in my comments, really great use of the words, and in a restrictive form, so kudos to you, congrats on a fine placement!

I see you and me have somewhat similarly used the eight words, though you've used it better in such a restrictive form:) strange as it seems, I've never read your poetry before, and it's pure coincidence:) I wish you all the best for the contest, Dupins:)
