And think
And think
But now I stare
And try not to think
And think
And think
Holes drilled into the wall break
My train
Of thought
Remembering
Fingers
And teeth
And biting down
Hoping
And
Waiting
And being greeted by silence
And something worse than rejection
I still don’t fully understand
Changing the order of my molecules
Too much has shifted
No longer anchored
My ship has set sail
I pray to God this crew doesn’t fall down dead
And leave me stranded
In the doldrums
I swear I didn’t mean to shoot that bird down
