It was right here
Till some time back
I kept on toying with it
But it cut me some slack
Yet I’m certain it was scared
When I was set for attack
And so must have fled
Ne’er to come back
My mind’s lost!
Now here I am, searching
Hoping it’d cut me more slack…
***Posted for G-Man’s Friday Flash 55! For more 55-word stories/poems, I would seriously suggest you visit his page.. 🙂 ***
Nicely 55.. Wonderful shape..
–Someone is Special–
heheh…that was totally unintentional, SiS 🙂
I like the depth in this. It goes well with the picture. Anyway, you’re not lost – it’ll come back and cut you more slack.
I sure hope so, Myrna… (fingers crossed)! 🙂
Oh…I think I must have done the same thing….but for some reason I cannot remember. 🙂
heheheh… join the club, Charles! 🙂
Spiralling out of control. Not a good feeling. But a great 55.
My 55 is HERE .
Ugghh.. not a good feeling at all… I hope my good mind comes back to me 🙂
hope you well,
the image is elegant,
do do your words.
aww.. thanks for asking, Ji… all is well indeed… you are too kind..
Sounds like one of my story ideas. Unless I write it down before it can sneak off.
hahahah… I do it all the time 😉
This is great. Sometimes I feel like I’ve lost my mind as well…but thankfully I find it, lol. LOVE the choice of photos you coupled with this post!
heheheheh…same pinch, Sheila!! 🙂 So glad you enjoyed this poem!!!
smiles…hope you find it…i sometimes think i have lost mine as well…
hahahah… we are talking about losing our minds like they were pennies 🙂 But oh yea, I hope I find it!! 🙂
Kavita…
I can say this….Your mind is just fine Baby!
Loved your mindless 55 My Friend.
Thanks for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week-End…G
G G G… what would I ever have done without you and your 55fridays?!?!?!?
Keep rocking, my friend!! You truly are my star!!!
Mind numbingly good.
Excuse the pun. lol
I think we all have to push most of the time.
The most important thing i find (particularly in my case) is that when true inspiration hits we don’t cheat ourselves by letting it pass by
hahaha…clever clever Richard!! And what you said about inspiration here…jeez…that’s so true!
Thanks for your insights and kind words, my dear… you rock!!!
Oh no worries, Kavita – I’m sure it’ll be back. Maybe it’s just taking a bit of a holiday on some warm beach somewhere… 🙂 Great FF55!
It’s on a holiday, alright Ruthie!! Waiting for its GRAND return 🙂 I’ll even give it a homecoming party! 🙂
Hate it when the mind gets away from you…finals were always the main source of that for me…alas.
Grr…. I totally get where you’re coming from, Chris!!! But this phenomenon happens to me every once in a while.. Hehehe… Thankfully, my mind has walked back to me on all occasions thus far 🙂
I appreciate your insights here, C… Thank you…
I hope that now ur finals are done with, you have the lovely company of ur mind 🙂
Happy weekend!!!
Though I have been cutting human bodies for quarter of century, I fail to cut wavelengths of your mysterious writing.
Many of the times I am left blank.
You have nicely described me here.
hahahahah… glad you think so, doctor… 🙂
Hoping it would cut me more slack..
Beautiful work… 🙂
It does, at times, Sumit… but sometimes, it just slips away.. 🙂
Aha nicely done, I have to agree with chris!, finals!,
hahahaha… been there myself!! Easy to get lost in those… 😉
Glad you enjoyed this one, Don!
Always the case, we miss, what we let go
Well said, KD… well said indeed!
LOVE this.
Ooohh… thanks, Shea!!!!
Kavitha I can relate to this ..A mind that has a mind of its own has to be serenaded back to be its own muse sometimes 🙂
You can say that again, Su…. aaarrrgghhh.. I wish I knew how to control it!! 🙂
I too miss my mind sometimes, It’s been a while since I saw it come back. I am just out of my mind, or maybe, the mind is out of me.
Nice Read.
Cheers,
Blasphemous Aesthete
hahahah… yup, me too, Anshul… Hopeing it decides on coming back to me.. and soon too…
Glad you enjoyed this one… thanks for stopping by.. 🙂
Oh my goodness. I do love this. A universal experience and you have expressed it well. Bravo, dear Kavita.
hahaha.. a universal experience, huh!! Phheeww…Thank Goodness I am not alone in this one 🙂
Thanks for your kind words, sweetie…
Love this..sometimes our own thoughts can be our worst enemy.
you can say that again, my friend! 🙂 Glad you enjoyed this piece…
hmmmm..
Kavz, tell your mind to not bother you by going dead.. It ought to be sleeping peacefully instead.. 😛
Hoping it’s nothing serious but just one of those mindlessness feeling without any reason!
Enjoyed this short little thing from you.. 🙂
Love xx
You are so darned right, Liv!! It’s just one of those mindlessness feeling (without a reason)…
My mind’s back, and happy too, after its long walk 🙂
Glad you enjoyed this “empty headed” poem of mine, sweetie… 😉
LOVIEZ YOU!!!! xoxoxoox
I like this – fun!
The picture and the symmetry of the poem make it pleasing.
Ooohh…thank you so much, Debi!!! You are very sweet…
I love this. You, my dear, are a genius! 🙂
Whhoooaa!!! I am flattered, Lavender.. thaaaaaaaaaaaankksss!! You are too kind…
xxxxx
cool, cool, cool! And how can you go wrong when you use ne’er?
hahahah… you said it, AB!!! Besides, when the mind’s lost, anything and everything’s possible 😉
This sums up how I have felt the last two weeks between writing papers, exams and grading my students. Not to mention still needing to buy some more gifts for family and friends for the holidays… My mind has become lost lately.
YIKES..exams!! 😀 Be it taking them OR grading them, they are a guaranteed way to send the mind on looooong walks… don’t you think?! 🙂
Well well well.. I hope you have found it by now, Mark… I found mine too.. whheeww!!
Take care, my friend… relax…
xoxox
Hello Ma’am I hope that you are in the pink of your health. I am happy to see you writing cool poems yet and increasing the nutrients of your poem… But i am sorry to say you that i have stopped writing poems for some time as i have discovered another talent of mine that i can write songs too. Now i compose, write and sing English songs. I do pop, rap and R&B. songs. I am trying my luck on that and hope someone will give me a chance to do on stage….
Aww… you stopped writing poems? That’s sad, Shravan..
But I am very pleased to see that you have started writing songs…THAT’s friggin’ AWESOME!!! I wish the best for you, my friend…
And thanks fro your visits and support here.. I really appreciate it…
P.S: Do lend me a peek into your song lyrics some day..will ya?! 🙂
