Monotone pitter patter,
Thundering voices echo upward,
Clicking of nail scraping varnish,
red
Like blood pouring from wrists.
The elephant in the room,
A phone on the edge of the bed,
It has a mind of its own,
It screams out persuasively,
Pulsating piercing pictures,
In an attempt to showcase,
Lives of perfect people,
Undermining the screaming reality
Of everything else.
