what can i do
when my brain is bleeding
and my eyelashes are falling out.
my hands and knees scraped up,
not a single soul can hear me shout.
i open my mouth and i can’t make a sound
i watch as a spider crawls out
i start to go blind
as the sun tucks itself behind the clouds
my tooth has cracked
blood follows now
it’s cold inside my little box
the heat went out
oxen and deers trot
ignoring my screams, my shouts
help me help me
im buried under ground
3 tons deep, beneath the body of a sheep. pure and asleep.
i won’t come out because i can’t
not for me to see
not to be seen
or heard
it’s better under the dirt
so i settle
and begin my return to the earth
