Addiction

How do you make things stop, when they

don’t want to stop (?) When life turns

itself upside down (?)

Ring-Around-the-Rosie … time stands still.

The moon opened up and swallowed my song.

There are no answers to the question:

“Where did I go wrong?”

Hopping on one foot - hopping backwards.

I don’t want to rhyme.

I don’t want to die.

Birds flying overhead carry my dreams away.

A finger walks across my page—it could not

read a word. A finger points to nowhere.

All things are undecipherable in the time of loss.

The trees walked.

The trees talked—they did not know what to say.

Evil wins the final hand.

I do not know how to make this madness STOP!!!
