Thursday's Musings

A Poem by therisa
"

When a mind wanders.

"
Mind lost
In a mental fog.
 
Where words are nonsense
Sounding like
A foreign language
Once made sense.
 
Comprehension
A lie told
To hide our blankness.
 
Like the plastic smile
From a salesclerk
Trying to sell us
Something we don't need.
 
Moving through
A sea of disposable items
Interchangeable
With each other.
 
For a penny
Or two
Should you have it.
 
As we gasp
Upon the very air
Used to build
Our Utopian world.
