pacings

colored blue from tops to toes
aided by 4, 5, 6, 7 beer bottles.

ack, turn the television back on
to that station with the listings.

calling and calling on you to talk
but it seems you're away today.

i'll go to bed early but only stare
at my ceiling, likely sweating.

these are the product of severe
pacings up and down my walls.

i am detached and angry and
sore and stupid and worried.
