Coprolalia
Your world moves on greased rails, sleekly
Twitches and twerks hijack mine uniquely.
Orchestration of vulgar sounds and ticks,
life with Tourettes, this lousy box of tricks.
Dancing a rhythm that no one else can hear
This herky-jerky jackass body bucks severe
A mind, full of whirlwinds, where random thoughts collide,
Clinging on to this whirling dervish, what a ride
Explosive howling, all bark but no bite,
Waywardly, thoughts and deeds are on opposing flights.
Unfiltered moments both naked and surreal,
Chaotic stress-filled outbursts show just how I feel.
Laughter and anguish, such a rollercoaster ride,
An emotional Tsunami, with no place to hide.
Every flicker every flitch, each impromptu shout,
Please understand the reality, it's what I'm about.

This is not about me, I'm not a sufferer but I did read an heartwarming article from a sufferer and felt that this condition needed to be publicised more for others to understand. Needless to say my only medium is Narrative verse. Glad you liked it and hopefully others may appreciate suffered difficulties
