all i want
is nothing at all
the monotonous chime of a new day
sounds like the screech of a tortured crow
i live in the night
when the universe is infinite
and the empty makes a single heartbeat
last forever
my senses distort in a twist of heat
and reality is whatever my addled mind
makes of it
all the blunt metal weight
of false responsibility
lift off my brittle bones
i can never die
when the sun hides from me
and i hide from reality
