This Tuesday’s Poem vol 6

I’m at a loss for words
and when I say that
I don’t mean I don’t know
what to say

I mean

I’ve lost words
I’ve lost my words
I hit my head and now
the words
are


gone




the words are gone
some thoughts are gone
the feelings aren’t gone!
the feelings are all right here
which means I’m sad but I don’t know why
and can’t find the words to say it

I’m angry
but can’t hurl the anger
as there’s no


catapult


you see
words are precious to me
at times my only friends
as a kid I used to collect them
like Pokemon

words are precious to me
like jewels
like diamonds
What’s more precious that diamonds?
Children?
Dogs?

Words are like dogs to me
Now more than half my dogs ran away
got euthanized
and I don’t know how to say
woof
