Found a way to do administration
that works like a charm: I must tell
myself aloud what I am doing every
step of the way for my brain to hear
Then it maintains concentration, now
I can save electronically - when I tried
previously, my brain did not retain any
step executed in short term-memory
Whatever I did, forgot immediately, but
when actions are chained to each other
by a series of sing-song words, my brain
knows where I am; I imagine a little alien
Sitting behind the controls in a small
compartment in my brain, not seeing
very well, only by listening does he
know where he’s going, only sounds
guide and inform him - I have an alien
in my head who only reacts to sound,
no wonder noise is so unsettling, when
he can’t hear what’s happening
He can’t steer and screams in my ears!
