I should be sadder
Bawling great big tears
To drown my cheeks
But I'm just sitting here
Am I a robot
I feel blunt
Muted
Lethargic
What's wrong with me

Feel the walls breathe
They ripple outwards
And reverberate back
Cracking the air
Breaking the floor
Shocking the senses
Accelerating the heart
Heating the space
Between us

Glass wings
Flit light
Through the windowpanes
Ethereally
On gentle breezes
And sunbeams

The truth is whatever
I say it is
So
Leave me alone
I just want
My secret life

Crimson Scintilla and
Acrid steaming
Pick up speed
Down the *****.
beleaguer
The cottages
Without warning

Mouths move to
Abstract sounds
Musings
Lounge ice cream
Meltings
Of black and white
Drippings
Out of the frames
Of old pictures

I'm falling backwards
And the air is rushing by
The light flickers
Like it's coming through treebranches
And I'm still falling
I'll twist my body
To see the ground
But there is none
It's a void
Of perfect blackness
