Poems
Dec 2011
running in circles
I might be
the lines under my eyes
racing each other down my face
and dreaming of being beautiful
I might be
an ant stuck in paint
suffocated, confused,
hopelessly devoted,
but ultimately wrong
I might be
moths in a stairwell
predisposed to believe that a flickering
wall lamp is the one and only sun
then repeatedly flying into it
The whole point of running in circles is giving up.
