It's a lamp. standing directly to the right of the t.v. the wrapping is still on the shade I don't think it's ever been plugged in. it just always stays there. never leaves me. Still a lamp when the wreck is in the present. when rubber hits frozen water over granite Still a red lamp Still standing directly to the right of the t.v. tubes plastic, flimsy, smooth pumping, pumping, pumping toxins; fluids; oxygen The wrapping still on the shade coaxed down your throat through your sinuses nutrition through your nose i don't think it's ever been plugged in you're plugged in you're plugged in you're plugged into the wall now, you're plugged into the circuit board it always stays there electricity feeding you and your limbs are cold lifeless lifeless you can't move never leaves me I see you everyday tubes; plastic, flimsy, smooth. pumping. pumping pumping; toxins, fluids, oxygen. Coaxed down your throat, through your sinuses, through your nose. Feeding you through your nose. Standing directly to the right of the t.v. still a red lamp please don't leave me....

Red Lamp
It's a lamp. standing directly to the right of the t.v. the wrapping is still on the shade I don't think it's ever been plugged in. it just always stays there. never leaves me.

Coaxed down your throat, through your sinuses, through your nose. Feeding you through your nose. Standing directly to the right of the t.v. still a red lamp please don't leave me....
