Downfall

I can't stop the clock

it's not a stop watch

getting up

I'm down

3 floors off the ground

if I jump

will my thump

make a sound

I'm out

I'm in

climbing underground

wondering

who would put me

back together again

kin or friend

perhaps my

arch enemy

who tried to

stick a pen in me

by befriending me

you're offending me

it's too damn early

for good mornings

so I go back to sleep

for one more moment

of peace
