The Way It Goes Down
I'm fine fine fine
But then the roof leaks
And I spiral off into calamity
The roofer says two days time
I think what if my whole life crashes
How can I continue to cope with everything
If not warm, dry and protected from the elements
And my thoughts go on and on and on and people behave normally as if coping with maintenance issues isn't the end of the world and they can end their sentences and not extrapolate everything that ever happens and worry every decision about roofers and houses and everything and anything will be filled with errors of judgement causing torment for all time and I rot within rotting walls lost to time.
Either that or the roof
will get sorted and
we might need
to repaper
a room.
