Wtdrl

Shuddering on the hallway steps 
smoking far too many cigarettes
drug deprivied
withdrawling all sleep back under the bed
entering slowly the eye of the hurricane
still cursed
         with the agonizing after effects 
      that inescsapable 
sick shadow of a man reaching for a perpetualy 
shifting end
