today the weight on my chest is
poltergeists
omnipresent
it is the stories of ghosts and perverted criminal maintenance men
it is the work that is due next week
it is - mainly it is the one thing I want that I can't figure out how to get
the thing that I cannot buy
or earn
or steal
it is the one thing that I work towards and daydream about and can't give up on
no matter how hopeless it might appear
today the weight on my chest is
poltergeists
omnipresent
