Garbled (NaPoWriMo 2022 #9)
Muddled
befuddled
words,
mismatched,
mis-spelt,
fumbling fingers
to the brain,
how do spell
- how do you spell
'repetition' again?
Do the 'i's have it
or is it e-ward?
Any why can't I
bloody well type,
tippy tap
click clack,
the right keys
geez cheese louise!
Chalk it up
to my mind
brittle as
crumbling cheese;
though not
an illness
-thank the stars.
The lesson here,
to stop
a bit
more,
even metaphors
need time to breathe.
