I lay down on 3 couch
cushions. I dont use
the couch itself becasue
it bothers my thinking.
The light casts
ominous shadows
across the ceiling
tiles. For a whole
week of my life,
I didnt need
hate,laughter,smiles,
frowns,tapping feet,
shining teeth,bickering
lovers,frothing beer,
or wilting flwoers.
All I needed
was a clock,
a bottle of water
and a box of granola bars.
Nevermind,
the bottle is empty.
I may need that frothing
beer after all.
