Spinning Minds 2

In Mental Diarrhea, Sounds like Poetry on May 27, 2007 at 8:52 pm

smush smush
spin spin
my mind is spinning again.
Actually no, it’s avoiding the task at hand
Doing everything possible in its power to eradicate any impulse
to begin doing homework
it won’t even let me type the word tre…trea…treatmmmm

TREATMENT.

oh no what shall we do?
write please,
now please,
if you please, please

no please,
not now please,
i’ll have my people call you
if you please, please

just once, please
not twice please,
don’t do it again, please,
don’t …please

block it out please
send me a love letter please
tell me you love me please
if you will, please

The word please
looks weird “Please”
like a cross-tease
of “ply” and “ease”

enough of that try again
force reluctant fingers to sing
bring again the ring
of loud music to my buzzing ear

this is stupid. i can’t do this here.
