#2

It was like staring into
a cheap styrofoam cup
full of black coffee

like when you are standing naked
in front of a mirror
denying it's you in there

It was that feeling of
stepping into your car
after being in bed for
2 days and seeing all of
the people on their way to
work or to drop their kids off
at school.

Opening your eyes and cursing the light
Closing your mind so it will stop running in circles.
