the silhouette of
a fading record player
shapes into mind
as the blood trickles
down her ghostly face,
tripping me with a pool
of insufferable guilt,
for it was the record
player that blinded me
from facing the issue, that
made me run instead of
conquer while i still could.

" Escapism isn't freedom. "
