And Counting…

a claustrophobic’s nightmare
inside my cell
dwarfed
by dog hair and don’t

an eggshell ballet
of blame
as the clock ticks
tarnished
telling no time

(doing nothing but biding)

my bones stretch
a body broken
pulled
in every direction
but up

and I long
for the gutter
a much preferred
bed of sewage
glittered glass
and broken dreams

and the stars
i can no longer see
