Drip Slip MAG
April 10, 2017
Melting
Falling
Floating
Dripping
Wondering
Asking
Questions
Thinking
We do not think when we are on the floor
You are nothing when you walk
through the door
I’m familiar with this world of dark
World of sparks
This place is only
My birthmark
A stain
A filter
Behind my eyes
Behind my eyes
Above my nose
Nobody goes
Beyond the carpet
Underneath the floor
Dropping
Dripping
Sinking
Through the floor
No more thinking
World of sparks
Into the dark
Into the dark
