ADHD
Patricia Ljutic
A flywheel
launched from a brain
that cannot remember
three consecutive words–
two words, maybe:
“Stop kicking…”
The third word catapults with
the what and the where,
changing channels
with every new activity,
leaving my son aimless,
scattering stones,
snapping twigs,
belching at turned heads,
spinning.
“S-T-O-P!”
What does stop mean with his
thoughts ajar?
ADHD: attention
without a footpath,
a train
