Somedays, I feel it swallowing me. ******* me down like a half-priced, happy hour, fruity ******* drink. Somedays, I can't even find the top or bottom or inside or out. Like my Grandpa with his first iPod. Somedays, I feel it shouting at me, "You're not better than this". You sound just like my mother. Somedays, I give in to it. Like we're in a thumb war, and it's the 8th grade bully with mutant steroid fingers.
Then I remember. It's just my bed. And it's really time for me to wake up.
