everything was fixed conveniently,
with just a bag of medicine to hold.
the smallest dose
for the things i host
lift me
one more mile.
watch the basement flood with dirty water,
the wood warps and whines and the paint peels.
no change of mood
in my solitude
i will waste away
to a smile...
the dimness will creep back into a corner,
day will glaze the floor with tobacco crumbs and dust.
i'll be asleep and be spared
lying in the armchair.
just avoid moving.
and after a while,
you've arrived
just in time,
with all the right supplies
to make you
mine.
