"Cluttered Mind"
by Jeanette Suelto

  Confusion always filled my head,
pondering came in and out,
but the thought of it all I still dread,
for the way it went about.
  So many ideas came to mind,
actions all came of them,
thoughts became daydreams which were spoken,
then somehow I became blind.
  Blinded by all the signs,
I did not see what lied inside.
My own mind was what I saw,
repeating events and forgetting how it was raw.
  Raw was my life,
never predictable,
as it was,
it just gave me strife.
  Subliminal messages were constantly sent,
I received them,
but disregarded their content.
  Mixed thoughts wandered around,
never too sure of what to do,
I sat and contemplated my way through,.
  Never once did I come to a conclusion,
for the predicament lingered on in its time.
Which now I see has no appeal,
the position has just turned grim,
due to now I see through my eyes,
and visualize the ending of it all.
  WHAT TIME I WASTED TO PRODUCE NOTHING MORE THAN JUST AS
BEFORE...
  Never shall it go any further,
for I shall not let it...
run off with my imagination again.
