Time skipping by a moment ago on a thread
Drunken numbness pulses through my head
Short-term memory is drowned by silence
Wishing to be able to live in the past tense
Mental lockjaw yucking up the day
Not able to hold a thought not even to pray
Why would one so far removed affect so close?
Good question, if you figure it out let me know
