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.
