Autistic Instrument
By: Imane Boukaila
Hearing sounds of empty
interior echoes thumping
my temples’ habitat of
hindered tonality of
unrhythmic tempo shredding
my inner motions asymmetrically
feeding motor wiring tilting
my spiralling mind
throwing my hallucinating
invisible phantom limbs off only
to trouble my senses to
reshape the truth
of patterns that map
the reality that dances
through
smell stolen
sunken totally
possessing my screaming bold
thinking stealing the easy possible
foolish show offered to dis-
play roles of thoughts
touch slides mostly
mobilizing timeless flows
of symphonic trapped
notes of harmonious
melodies revealing the lifting
curtain hiding my infinite creativity
same as the orchestrated
random colossal
universe harmony starts
treasuring the mind when
shaping creative
thoughts
