Your three words today are:
MUSK
MUST
MUSH

I must get rid of this musk
Before I turn into mush.
The scent is strong, it’s hard to bear,
A cloud that follows, everywhere.

I’ll wash it off, I’ll scrub and rinse,
Find something fresh, a little hint.
Maybe flowers, or ocean breeze,
Something light that brings me ease.

No more should I feel so confined,
With every step, I’ll leave it behind.
A new perfume, a sweet embrace,
To lift my spirit, and change my pace.

So away with the old, I’ll start anew,
With scents of joy, all bright and true.
I’ll find my way back to the sun,
And with each breath, I’ll feel the fun!

Embracing the Mush

M.A.D. Works

My brain feels soft, a mushy heap,
Thoughts all jumbled, not a peep.
Ideas slip like grains of sand,
I reach for thoughts, but they won’t stand.

Once so bright with spark and flare,
Now they float like leaves in air.
A foggy cloud, a heavy weight,
Every simple task feels like fate.

Words get tangled, lost in space,
I search for them, but can’t keep pace.
It’s hard to focus, hard to think,
Just like a drink that’s gone to sink.

But in this mush, a calm does creep,
A cozy blanket, soft and deep.
Though thoughts may sway, and focus drift,
I find some peace, a little gift.

So here I sit, with brain a mess,
Embracing chaos, I must confess.
Through all the mush, I’ll take my time,
And find the sense in this silly rhyme.
