Notes About The Poem

The Niggles of Life

Life is an annoyance of cognition
Certainly can't understand it anymore
The circuit is tense
Examining the heart
Gradually collapses
Can't you turn on the switch?
My skin slips
It starts to itch
Fear resonates
Like a train
Trying to stick together
Run together
Not indecisive
Break up
Make up for yourself

Life goes on despite the annoyances--good advice in the ending.

Seems it takes the "break up" to get to the "make up for yourself" Love this. Thank you!

we are so fragile and sensitive, and the skin so thin when it comes to fear and feelings of intensity, nicely penned Sotto,
