my breath escapes my lungs like air leaving a punctured balloon one moment--that's all and it escapes like water cupped in your hand it's impossible to stop it from escaping ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ you steal it like a teenager at the mall grabbing the trinkets and shoving them in the pockets on their faux leather bags you steal it and i don't even mind ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drinking salt water and watching the blank wall gets tiresome and i want to go home ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the hallucinations begin but i know they are just neurons firing in my brain and that makes me drink that pungent water and it seeps in my pores
