vertigo/ dayz

days go by
thick and fast
through the haze
country miles
through the haze
dunya defiles
through the haze
the fish tank
green algae
a daze
the elders are playing dominoes
and drinking ginger beer
the churail is screaming
blood is spilling everywhere
it spreads in black lake
by the mountains
searing pain takes
hold 
days go by 
thick and fast 
so do the nights
wandering 
tooting 
breaking an old mans heart
through damning words not mine
his valve is already floppy
they say don't be soppy
it's just life
its not good enough
i didn't do enough
water checks
fire safety
full moon
running on empty 
till lungs are on fire
till heart pumps louder
to the sound of hearts club classics
gym lyf, friday night, eastenders in subs
 purple mirror
a reflection, not mine
to re-define
what it means to be a
stranger
the common
forever alone
forever common
sipping green tea 
with a couple of strangers 
a welcome break, from tv dinners
and deafening silence 
broken up by a cacophony of meows
from an internal violence
that shows no signs of desisting 
and shit, giving up 
never felt so liberating
