Frozen That's the best I can do To describe it This feeling Mid sentence Mid thought I'll come to a standstill The words I'm certain I was about to say Now MIA Their abscence Acutely felt Tiny waves of panic Ripple thru my brain Where have they gone And what will I do Without them Or this Or that A feeling of being Tantalizing close To some sort of epiphany Only to find myself suddenly Somehow transported Extraordinary rendition To this fugue state How did I get here A refuge From my own thought process Frantically searching for Familiarity A willow wisp of words That left me stranded Here Alone Speechless I will not accept defeat For the words My tongue cannot reach I will find them And they will move Cognitive dissidents Poetry is A daring escape A window onto my mind An act of Self defenestration

Cognitive Dissidents
Frozen That's the best I can do To describe it This feeling Mid sentence Mid thought I'll come to a standstill The words I'm certain I was about to say Now MIA Their abscence Acutely felt Tiny waves of panic Ripple thru my brain Where have they gone And what will I do Without them Or this Or that A feeling of being Tantalizing close To some sort of epiphany Only to find myself suddenly Somehow transported Extraordinary rendition To this fugue state How did I get here A refuge From my own thought process Frantically searching for Familiarity A willow wisp of words That left me stranded Here Alone Speechless I will not accept defeat For the words My tongue cannot reach I will find them And they will move Cognitive dissidents Poetry is A daring escape A window onto my mind An act of Self defenestration
