Junk In My Head

There is junk in my head Will not leave me alone Clinking and clanging Trying to be a yesterday's poem There is stuff whirling around Making me ponder and posh Adding extra confusion Some stuff going slosh There are ideas and things I am not grasping at all I try in vain to stop them But they are several feet tall I cannot get in touch with my dendrites The ones that connect The junk is not letting me think I am on flat-out "what the heck?" There is clinking and clanging There are things I probably should know There is blinking and banging. It is a "what is going on?" show So today I may just take A well deserved nap or a break. For the ideas are crazy and illusive So what kind of poem would they make?

Thank you Chris. When it is there, it is there, demanding to be out on paper, prancing and dancing. What can we do, right?
