ABSOLUTE ZERO

LOST AND UNRECOGNIZABLE, LOOKING LIKE THE WORST ABSTRACT ART, THROWN TOGETHER ACCIDENTALLY

 THROWN ASIDE LIKE AN OLD CAR TAKEN TO A JUNKYARD TO BE CRUSHED AND SHREDDED

DETERIORATING LIKE AN OLD HOLLOW TREE ROTTING AWAY IN A DEEP FOREST 

 ISOLATED LIKE A THOUSAND-YEAR-OLD GLACIER IN THE ARCTIC. FROZEN SOLID BY LAYERS AND LAYERS OF DISAPPOINTMENT, AGONY, AND SELF-DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR

 EMOTIONALLY STRANDED IN A REMOTE PART OF THE WORLD ALONE AND LIVING IN DARKNESS FOR 21 HOURS A DAY
