Unmade bed clock, scribbles against the wall Antique mirror, forgetfulness Pride goes before the fall Loveless Barren like a storm Repugnant Not a man but a worm Tick, fridge humming downstairs Airconditioning is loud Prayers are said I never did like a crowd Reflections, water, negative ions Quantum entanglement, death Occupied two spaces and one Going blue from holding my breath Sleep, counting sheep Should be counting people instead Running up and down On the treadmill in my head Have another bath Smoke a cigarette Asked but no response Not remorse but regret No sense, incoherent Dissatisfied with it all Wash, rinse, repeat Unknown number, blocked call Office, work, alarm five fifteen Dogs on the furniture Sickness, world peace Sick heart, no cure Sedative, no Blocks questions but answers too We don't speak to the dead But they speak to you An enigma, passing dust Ashes, flames of burning lust Love, redemption, prophecy Just who do you trust?
