Nominal Aphasia
Nominal
aphasia: a condition in which the nouns – but not necessarily
other types of words – cannot be accessed by the brain
They
are driving away from me
down
the where they came from earlier
to
visit me here in this
where
I am
And
cannot think of how to get away
or
how I would manage
now
that the
I
had so easily once
have
vanished from my
where
they were always there ready
to
roll off my long pink moist
where
I keep it in my
where
I eat and spit
Others
such as wake shit sleep
have
stayed but not the what
we
all used in the old
the
before
the
before this happened
So
perhaps they won’t come again to see me
now
I can’t find the
whatever
they were we always called them
to
talk
