Everyone is yelling.

The cars screech and holler
the world is filled up with this daily clamour
the sounds of
transaction
survival
pleasure.

I want it all to stop.

This chaos
drowns me.

It is a hungry whirlpool,
it ***** me down
and I am consumed.
I lose my form
I scatter
my stunned body left reeling in this increasing emptiness

there are fractures
and pinholes
and puncture
all over my body
and I
am spilling out of them,
absorbed
into the ambient cacophony
of all this sordid living.
