⚡ Brain Bursts ⚡

Electricity Surging Through My Cognitive Circuitry

By Lightning Bolt ⚡Published about a year ago Updated 8 months ago 1 min read
Why I've Been Away

I've been to Hell and back ___ My thinking was totally off-track__ It's like my neurons were hacked __

_________by lightning-charged krack

When your memory is periodically erased / All sense of Time is mysteriously misplaced / It's like your identity is partially retraced /

///Concentration, motivation, inspiration: all debased

Maniacs of my kind are given all kinds of drugs ________________ The most soothing treatment for me is hugs 🫂💖🫂💖🫂

My disjointed mental connections are barely manageable ___________ My heart routinely devours itself like a cannibal

Frustration turns too easily to rage!!! 🫵🔥👿✊🔥!!! ________When I'm in a good mood, sure, I'm euphoric‼️ 🥳🕺🎉🤸🌈⚡😁👍 But I need to turn another page 📖💥____ Too many beloved ones think I'm neurotic 😱🤯😵‍💫🤪⚡😭😭😭

I often believe that they are correct \My sense of self has been utterly wrecked \ But they don't understand --> Their spirits never swim though shadowlands

Finally, the latest mix of medications seems to be working / finally, I'm no longer collapsing and convulsing and jerking

My writing is back on track!! ___ The ideas are so prolific; they're starting to stack!!! __ Restored focus and regained motivation piggyback ___ I even embrace my place in the Zodiac! ♒🏺

🤣😂

Defeated? Nah. I'll take another crack.....

I'm back.
