FLAILING NUMBNESS

(02.07.97)

Searching through the darkness
For an invisible light,
Fumbling along the pavement
With uncertain steps,
Throbbing head;
Pain everywhere.

A distant sound
Causes a mixture
Of hope and paranoia,

Sense of falling,
Water everywhere,
Landing in puddles;
Just lying there
Catching gasps of breath

Attempts to stand up
Are hampered,
By a hand
Pushing the head down,
Down into the puddle.
