I got up this morning
And looked around
I knew that I needed it
But it was nowhere to be found.

I know it isn’t too big
And sometimes full of clutter
But without its guidance
I do nothing more than putter.

I try to remember
where did I have it last
I know I had it two nights ago,
Before that dietary fast.

I really need to find it
I really need it today
Because if I cannot retrieve it
There will be hell to pay!

I think it took a hike
Needing some time away
From all the craziness of my world
Maybe wanted to enjoy the day

All I know is that without it
I don’t make any sense
My direction is all fuddled
My intellect is dense.

So I will try to find it
In the mess of my room
Cause without my mind
The world is facing doom.

I don’t claim to be brilliant
Or a saviour, or a superhero
But without my mind working
The countdown is already at zero.

So I dig through all the stuff
That has accumulated in the pile
And hope that I managed
To put my brain in a file.

Maybe its like my teeth
And it’s floating in a glass of water
Or in the refrigerator
So it wouldn’t get any hotter.

I probably put it where I wouldn’t forget it
Maybe it is under the bed
Or in the bookcase or on the counter
Instead of in my head

Won’t somebody help me
And tell me where to look?
If I don’t soon find my mind
I will be the subject of some book.
