Poems
Feb 2018
You Have Dropped Your Phone, Run From Your Room and Can No Longer Breathe
Reaching elevator doors
heart crashing to standstill
breath ripped from lips
cold twisting, poison heat
no no no no no
scream your ears
pounding the walls, ground floor
down down down
shout your hands
clattering earthquake on steel
your eyes swimming in disbelief
ground floor get to ground floor
slow descent watches free fall
where is the ground, tell me
please
they are not gone
doors opening
are you okay
stranger you've terrified
run run get out get out they are not
gone gone gone
echo rattles your skull
panic tearing throat from neck
you could have done
more say walls
burst outside cars screaming like mother
lost child
gone gone gone no no no
suffocating outside too no escape
not today no no no
there is no air
black go lights you've hit your head
it echoes
gone gone gone gone gone
gone gone gone gone gone
