empty staffroom hums,
tinsel draped in gaudy glee,
echoes fill the void.
It's too quiet in here but blaring Christmas colours.
such is the change of time
i have been around for  an
hour

Dear thoughts/brain,

I need a break
Please shut up
For me to love us
I need you to go away

Stop flooding my brain
Its overflowing
Soon it will explode
Please
I beg if you
Even just for a day
Take a hike
Or entertain yourself some other way

I know you like to watch me fall apart
Drown in your result
But it's too much today

Respectfully
Lock yourself  up
And throw out the key
For me

With mixed feelings,
You
(this note was written by a doorknob that wouldn't twist and mocked you when you couldn't open the door)
Tobacco and gum
and a bottle of ***
point me in the direction
of what I've become,

we all go wild in the West
dreaming of who shoots the best.

even though it's a con
we still mosey on
I mosey on too looking for you
dreaming of who shoots the best.
