There's this corner in the living room I hate
It's gonna hurt me
I will get sick from it
It's got bugs
It's darker as it gets lower into the tip of the corner
I feel like it has eyes sometimes
I don't wanna look at it
It looks at me when I sleep
I don't wanna move my pillow to that side ever
It could be a giant black oozing monster
I'm afraid I smell it
I don't wanna touch it
It's gonna hurt me
Yet I still sleep with my bed in that corner

Their house is filled up,
richly furnished, with a nook --
where they bivouac.

Pillows fluffed up perfectly,
throw blankets set down with care.
The living room is masked-
it looks perfect,
not a crumb in sight, nowhere.
But internally,
the pillows are about to burst,
start crying blanket tears.
She wants to drown in them,
to simply disappear.
She throws the pillows to the ground,
tries to rip the blanket to shreds.
It doesn’t work, Her mind is still filled with dread,
but Her face- happy instead.
