Rompecabezas

Every month, Rebecca over at Fake Flamenco sets a poetry challenge. This month, her chosen theme is – puzzle. Once our offerings are in, she sets herself a puzzle, and translates every single one into Spanish. Hence my post’s title. I reckon translating mine will definitely set out to romperle la cabeza (break her head).

Puzzle

I'm always frazzled by a puzzle.
My mind dries up, my brain's a-sizzle.
The answer's muzzled in my head
then bustles off - it's such a hassle.
I'm frizzled up and start to grizzle.

Let's just give up - go on the razzle.
