Relentless pursuit of one goal
One, goal. Pure focus
‘what? we can’t cross the river here
let’s build a bridge or a tunnel
there must be a way!”
An unbending line
from here to my destination
details to be written, recorded
stored on plates, words, dates
please don’t distract me
with daily life
I’ve a job to do
stories to be consumed
by everyone I never knew
and you.
Burano, Italy
I cannot stop, not no, cannot,
until the desire of my brain,
is sated, released of its many thoughts about
one thing, many things that are, the same thing
calmer then, until my eye
catches a new target:
‘Go, go go!’
there is no other way.
on task ~ alone, preferably, in mindful oneness ~ a blank sheet of paper awaits words ~ only I can write.

My personal expression and experience of Asperger’s Syndrome. A deluge of detail and decisions to make taking me away from what I really want to do. Everything else is a distraction.
Do you have experience of Asperger’s? How would you describe it? How does it impact your life?
