SPLICE A MONKEY

Just Like The Original 10,000 Pieces there would be some days where I could only create 1 piece due to any of the follow reason such as migraines, seizures, loss of equilibrium, short term memory problems (where was I), confusion, disorientation,increased tinnitus to the point it drowns out everything, (what is that?  I can't hear you) etc., etc., etc.

Today I knew I had to look for a painting I had done on this day, whether it was from the original 10,000 pieces or something since then, and my mind new that my brain was still tired from working a little over 6 hours on Thursday (so proud of that even though I was only able to do 2 yesterday).  I know it is toooo much to ask for my brain since writing this is taking for ever and I have other business related items I promised myself I would get to so I don't get behind, again.  So today I will leave you with something I wrote last night instead.

It is a poem of sorts and the title of it came out of the blue.  Can't get any more then that creatively since I know I am close to seizures right now so I will just copy what I wrote:

The title of the below poem came to my mind when I was envisioning telling someone about how good I used to be at multi-tasking (apparently as good as two guys put together and that statement was from a customer when I was working at Home Depot) before the Brain Injury and if now I would try to do the same job it would go like this "focusing on the task, interrupted by someone for a moment, then back to what I was doing and I couldn't even begin to remember what I was doing and the most absurd thing came to my mind "Splice A Monkey."

SPLICE A MONKEY

Focus, focus on your task, 
Interrupted, don't ask
Back to the focus, it lacks
Can't even remember where I was at
Absurdity is the key
Splice A Monkey, don't you see?!
