All sound is muted Vibrant colours overlaid with gauzy grey. My skin, my hair, are damp, As if those things were weeping, but have ceased, As if I am made of tears Or, have bathed in them, Yet, I feel nothing, nothing but numb No pain, ah – well, a faint, dull ache As if my etheric body were trying to escape. I am lost within and without myself All insular, enclosed Boxed, redundant, closed away Grey is the way to the end of today.
