Sheet music
Feral
Scattered
Bowl of rice
Untouched
Three days cold
Static on the radio
Right frequency
Wrong planet
An itch
Inside
Deep
My head
It burns
I wish something could help me.
White keys
Black keys
Blinding keys
Hypnotised
Empty sheet
Spiralling words
Stories stories
Shivering pen
The pill strip
Help?
No.
Not today
The bed
Sleep?
Why?
Pointless
I wish something could help me!
Stop ticking!
Bury the clock
Sound sound sound
Too much
The night too cold
The sun too bright
The water too smooth
Too much!
The pill strip
Placating?
No.
No!
The bed
Rest?
Can’t!
STOP! QUIET!
I wish something could help me!
A pill strip
Not mine
Pop one
Wrong one
Pop two
Wrong too
Pop three!
Burning! Burning! BURNING!
Stop ticking
The clock
The clock
The clock
Stop
White keys
Black keys
Static
Too bright
Too loud
Stop stop stop
I wish something could help me
I wish
Help
Something
Something help
Me
Help. Me.
