It’s something that likes
To eat. Well
That’s how it started out.
Now It just lies there on the floor.
It’s a weight on my chest as if
I were lying there beneath it.
It slumped over me, melting into the carpet
Like cheese on a hot burger.
Well, I did say it liked to eat.
I should be done here, my fingers
All aflutter, finger pads drumming on knuckles.
It is coming after me again.
Not that it ever went away. It is just that
Sometimes I forget and get some peace
That way.
Me listening to Moonlit Trees.
