i am drowning in a sea of insignificant words that flood from your oral cavity filling the air with piteous petty pleas for attention and coddling and i hope for some respite in the form of silence or pause and i know it isn’t coming so i picture you wounded and gaping and oozing blood instead of so many words but it doesn’t shut you up and you don’t even notice that i am no longer here but absent in a world of my own contemplating silent dusty asteroids and deserts and soundproofed basements
