States of Mind

I can’t tell my state of mind when I write
I have so many states of mind that I write
there’s many states of mind I try to right
my states of mind can’t place the time when I write

my states of mind:
sated, sedated, and satiated in stated lines

my states of mind:
quakes and hides
shakes and chimes

fakes and lies
framed, disguised

wades and tides
waves and rides

rains and shines
chained and shrined

changes sides
chases time

vain with pride
base desires

breaks and wired
taints and geysers

paints and fires
taped and fibered

grated iron
great and dire

aims, misfires
stays, expires

so you see,
I’m dissociative and split
and that’s not even the half of it

I’m up, down, around, plus a round
and its hard to remember what’s been said, or how I sound

because my mind doesn’t like to repeat or replay
it only exists in the now…
or denial

my states of mind:
vast and broad as an ocean
constantly in motion

impulsive
borderline compulsive

but my intellect cloaks its exposure
my imagination grants its composure
therefore, blesses me with intuition and closure
and though it breaks, it makes me stronger,
because it’s very weight, is still heavy upon my neck and shoulders
as I go forth in this world as a roamer
procuring more wisdom than my molars
and I’m WayOfLife,
its proud owner!
