Tinnitus

Page history last edited by kms 13 years, 4 months ago

The sound of the air conditioner rattles my brain

 

     the television as background noise,

     Irritating

 

          No way out

 

          No where to go

 

               Insomnia has me exhausted

 

     to do list Too long

 

     just want to be Unplugged

 

                 what’s that - Serenity

 

MayoClinic.com information   The muse here was not my tinnitus.  Inspiration came from wanting to be unplugged for about a week from the Internet, email, PBWorks, TV . . . relax with some good books & converstaion, the mountains or the sea (or both!) . . . my fountain pen, journal, and some Cranes (stationery).  The tinnitus is just an added annoyance.  Something I acquired years ago after a severe migraine that threw me off balance.


This has a nice ambiance to it.  I can actually feel the state of mind via the syntax and form.  This is more or less how I felt last night drinking cup after cup of coffee and still being unable to focus and get my work done.  But it got done.  Anyways.  But the caps (or random caps as one snooty net user once coined in her snooty essay to bash my writing and other people's writing) work to add to that disoriented/tired feel.  I cannot really offer any constructive criticism as this point. - Heidi
