mind games

memories are the background noise of the mind, the distractions that play from within like the TV you aren't really listening to, but never seems to go off and then there are the fantasies, the desires and the dreams all becoming questions that tickle and haunt, sooth or grate, from soft down to sandpaper, the constant mind chatter provides a never ending stream of background noise from within... sometimes it might be a song, sometimes a story, sometimes just a glazed over stare into space... all the mind games played with or without our conscious awareness... background noise, mind games, forever...
