incoherency

Lack of sense

Incoherency is the quality of lacking logical connection or clarity—the state of being incoherent.

It describes speech, writing, or thought that doesn't hold together: The fever produced bouts of incoherency.

The word is interchangeable with incoherence, though incoherence is more common.
