tired

Scratch, pick and peel
Calm
Twitch, scratch, itch
Steady
Blister boiling flesh
Awkward churning
Oppressive weight of silence
Pacing, pacing, pacing
Peeled paint
Scattered chips,
Stepped on and
Spread across the floor
Warped boards
Creaking and groaning
Unbearable fog of nothing
Moldy thoughts
Rotting, decaying
This is all you'll ever be
Insignificant, Unrecognizable
A spec of dust
On the ass of an elephant
An out of tune guitar
Locked in the case, forgotten and buried beneath useless crap
A rattling pipe
Tired and apathetic
Flickering light
Confusingly dim
An untrained voice
Swallowed alive amongst the macabre noise
A flashlight with no batteries
A VCR not plugged in
Pacing, pacing, pacing
