came home

i came home,

all my posters

were

hanging off

the

sterile

egg-shell

painted walls

so i laid down

and

allowed my

eyes to close.

i ate too much

for four days just

because i had a memory

of wanting

to eat

too much.

so i did.

now there're

all these stories

that i at one point

experienced

but now they're

only stories

and i don't

tell them

that well.

and i wonder to

myself,

about a lot

of things,

but one

is how long it

will take before

i fix the posters

on my wall.
