words

what is the word?
confused perplexed
flipping through my mental
Rolodex what word comes next?
I knew it last week, it perfectly expressed
 that feeling of . . . of . . . . of. . . what?
I used it once in a witty and elegant bon mot
to describe that elemental numbness
that abysmal dumbness
lacking the words to speak in my own voice.
