An overdose of existential dulls my cognition
Unraveling a thread from a neuron knot
Stretching it endlessly around the cosmos
Floating above it all, a visceral astronaut
##
Newton says we will fall back to Earth
Tumbling thru the gray matter of the mind
Concentration drifting as synapses fire
A Technicolor rainbow but I’m color-blind
##
My brain has a mad scientist in control
Can I slow the speed of mentation?
Bypassing the rational imbalance
Searching for an oasis of sedation
##
No switch to halt overflowing brainwaves
A confluence of mental images pulsate
Clock hands slowly drizzle the minutes
An avalanche of dreams anxiously wait
