Woke up silence right
there
fan in the distance cat in
the box back
to black. Right
side down
hip still sore. Falling off the
horse hurts less than
finding out it just doesn’t like
you. spasm rocks
me in
her cradle.
Waking up
again it’s raining
seems all year
round now
reaching for light some
show playing
on
and on.
Left now jaw still sore
making a list of books I would
recommend Chronologically
getting stuck
on c
Cucumber cold crunching behind
my lids, oh
Crime and Punishment!
tummy clenching, slightly drizzling.
Wake up I think
maybe six?
Someone is stirring two
rooms over.
Ringo wants food
wonder how many trips
I will take
later.
Yesterdays crazy saves Todays
lazy. Want to
read the book I packed
so far
down it
would destroy
me digging
it back
up.
Bridgers goes to shuffle
shed a tear for
the ghost
in the grave. in the garden.
They massacred
the Trees thank
god I
won’t have to watch them grow
back.
Wonder if the sky will
sing this way
forever that
would be nice.
if the birds simply
cannot, I
will sing for them
screams sound like
a celebration
from afar yes?
must try
remember to
Choose left next
time!
still making that
mistake. tiredness is
looming once
More.
Moving on (out). - Anthology
