I decided an acrostic poem utilising my name should describe an aspect of myself.
I suffer from acute-on-chronic, spontaneous, debilitating and often public Brain Farts.
The cause is a combination of impulsivity, nervous talking and social awkwardness.
I have attempted to describe the process, in the hope that the condition may be better understood. While the problem often impacts the people around me, it is something that I live with every day.
I have strategies in place to assist with its management, but as the condition flares up unexpectedly I continue to experience symptoms almost daily.
Gibberish spills forth with fatuous abandon
Illegitimate ideas shared without consent
Rebelliously the tongue betrays the mind
Labelled villainous, the orator, a casualty of impulse
Benign ideas proliferate at great speed
Erupting effortlessly, independent of cognition
Forever voiced and irretrievable
Observation spontaneously turned to statement
Regret engulfs with equal haste and vigour
Escapees of an atypical mind
Mystifying and confounding to their host
Incongruous, as though passively projected through them by another
Ravaging all in its path
Recklessly gaining momentum
Ominous to all who bear witness
Ramblings of a wretched soul
Original poem and sketches by @girlbeforemirror

@penpen welcome to steemit! Very much an account of the Kimberlys. :) Well spotted
I am running a tattoo story challenge next week. I am taking over @papa-pepper's comp. If you have ink and a story it's a great way to get started.
