things I love
the nice bed with bumpers on the side and a lid getting
ready to close
My bed for eternity, the polyester fabric comforting
and embracing
Me like a mother with
her newborn child;
in the crowd sat
Noone weeping
and crying
like someone had stolen
niagra falls and inserted
them into her eyesockets, she approaches Me and puts
her hand out to touch
my cold skin, a single tear lands
on my face as if it were a last attempt
to bring
me back into the light;
I wasn’t focused
on her, instead I was patiently
watching
the food sitting
across the room, Noone walks
over to it and touches
it all;
Everyone then enters
the room, Everyone punches
Noone in the face and Noone falls
to the floor, Everyone rushes
to Me, picks
Me up and rescues
Me, Everyone tries
to flee
with Me but Noone stands
up and returns
to fight
Everyone, Noone stands
in the doorway and blocks
us off, Noone picks up
a chair and hurls
it through the air;
Noone is furious
now, with
a face as red as hemoglobin and disfigured
like an evil goblin, she was
delirious, Everyone steps
towards her as if she was the superior, Noone moved
as well, but she moved
like a rabid dog, Everyone took
another chair and destroyed
it, she took
a leg and prepared
to joust,
Everyone charges
with me strewn
across her shoulder, Noone charges
too except she doesn’t have
a jousting stick;
they collided
and Everyone dropped
me on the ground, while laying
there I saw
a little mouse, we had
some small talk and wasted
some time, but our conversation was cut
short by Everyone picking
me up
again, we rushed
out of the door and got
away from that building, I looked
back as we left, and I saw
Noone had
been turned
into a fish, he was flopping
around, gasping
for breath, then a hawk swooped
down and took
him away.
