its quiet
very quiet
so quiet that
its defening
im on the floor
my back against the couch
my feet touching the leg of the table
my hand supporting my chin
when i look down
i see papers
lots of papers
and words
God, so many words
a blue marker
a pen
two poster boards
they are white
so so white
I actually feel bad to mark them
to place words on them
words that may be inaccurate
and then....
i pause.
i hear nothingness
emptiness
there are no more papers
no more markers
there is only me
i see only my body
the one on the floor
and the other above it
one made of flesh
the other made of smoke, fog
one is numb
not thinking
not questioning
not wondering
the other watches in silence
disilusionment!
confusion!
how can there be two bodies
when there is only one of me?
perhaps one is only an image of the body
after all, it is only see-through smoke
but....
its the smoke that is observant
at times it can distance itself
from the flesh
and other times it can attach itself once more
...but, right, now,
i don't care where it is
as long as IT knows where it is
i don't care
i just want to gaze into the silence
forget about the papers
about the flesh
eventually
i know the minute, or is it second,
either way
i know it will pass
the smoke will once more enter the flesh
the papers will reappear
the marker will be there
and so will all the words
...and i will start to hear the clock ticking
reality will kick in.
