How to Say Nothing

Why are…why can’t…who can…
…May I restart?
Let me start over.
I…creativity is relatively the activity
In which I express over obscenity
To pity infinity is to have an infinity of pity
And…Expression since a poetry am I
Making so I can find…
If I can’t remember how to express myself,
Then I can’t remember how to express myself
And may I…remember what came next.
Or let me start over.
Yeah, let me start over.

    I empathize

    I laughed when I read it, but there was this commiserating feeling there, too. I definitely remember the days where nothing seems to make sense, and not just in poetry. Those are the days when you stutter your way through the answers to questions with a great deal of pausing and staring at your hands in between, when you think, "Let me try again, just let me try again, I'm not normally like this..." *claps* Great job of capturing this conundrum.

    Somehow I doubt it's bananas. It's sounds like your thought process when you're writing in the middle of the night, or very early in the morning.

    I think you might be on to something. Keep going with it.
