Overwhelmed

Thoughts become stuck in my head
And like waves of a confused sea
They hit my consciousness
Unexpectedly without pattern

Unpredictable onslaught
All encompassing
The boat dives nose down
And disappears from sight behind a wave

Clarity

Clarity
Boundaries
Knowing
Limits

No liminal space
No flux
No fluidity
No wondering

There is calm
In that moment
Of clarity

Before the noise
Of life
Washes over you
Hampering your senses
