Life Is A Construction Site



LIFE IS A CONSTRUCTION SITE

Creative output is dry.

My mind feels like it

unravels

a little more each day.


I feel my body is falling apart

Never healthy, never strong.

My teeth rot in my mouth –

no matter what I do.


This feeling of stuck,

of gloom,

of clouds blocking the sun,

of moving / but not going forward,

can never disappear for too long.


So I waste another day

doing nothing,

breath in more smog

from the LA air,

turn up the happiest

music I can find,

and feel my chest

squeeze a little tighter.
