Breakfast At Epiphanies

Had an epiphany this morning and yet, the screeching and scratching of the voices is always at hand.

The only thing I can trust this day and age is the walls talking to me. Ceremoniously, I want my consciousness to die.

Alas, it lies wake and unfolds the lashes concocted. From the whips of a tormented psyche.

I was alive and well this morning. The clicking of a stopwatch is the split frames of time that rip apart my wretched soul.

Part ways with the thought of living the days without the switch. Up, down, left, right. Goodnight.
