Powerful Thought Generator
My mind is far too stubborn for my liking
Lalalalalala — distraction by noise, by singing, by humming,
Pathetic!
My attempt; my decision not to think about it,
How did that turn out?
The opposite of procrastination,
Washing the kitchen floor, scrubbing the bath; keeping busy.
Lalalalalala — singing louder,
Dancing the two-step.
Hungry; standing staring into the fridge with the door held open,
No, don’t feel like that; nothing enticing.
The mind starts on the topic,
NO, NO, NO!
What was I doing?
Now I’ve forgotten. Oh, going to head out for a walk.
One foot in front of the other; thinking,
Maybe I should jog!
TV. I’ll watch my favourite show; smiling,
Until — what just happened?
I wonder what Mum’s up to. I’ll give her a call,
“Sorry Mum, I missed what you just said.”
Oh, I know. A nice warm bath and a good book,
Damn! How did the water overflow?
