drabble #2

  • The pain. Glorious and lingering. Itching and numbing. I feel it creeping, seeping through me. Why must fickle words affect me? am I so tied to this world? When can I be free? Free of the dread that haunts me. Free of the burdens that burn me. Until the day I lay still, that is when I shall be free. Free myself I must. I must sever ties in order to be free. Ties of parentage. Ties of homelife that I've grown familiar to for the last 26 years. It is time for change. A change in this wind. The air has grown stale and mouldy. Like the room I sit in. Mould grows near me where I sleep, as cobwebs droop from its corners. This room is a reflection of my mind, of my current state. I am nothing but a collection of emotions, that sit festering in this embodiment of gluttony.

  • If you feel you are nothing but a collection of emotions festering in the embodiment of gluttony, you better cool out on the cookies.
    Or souvlaki.
    Or Chinese take-out.
    Or humus appetizer platter selection.
    Or Skittles.
    Or whatever you are consuming in your stale and mouldy room where you sit and sleep, as cobwebs droop from its corners.
