Lethologica
Logic failing, recall
lacking, tip of the tongue
linguistic challenge. Now
lost for words, what's that word?
Litoration failure!
Laughter forbidden! Wait!
Lethologica! Phew!

Notes:
Lethologica is a condition we all have suffered from where a word is on the tip of your tongue - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tip_of_the_tongue. It's the word that the poor reader was trying to remember and also suffering from.
Litoration - representing sounds by letters. Not much use when dealing with lethologica!
