torn


Have you ever been
stuck 

between now

and what happens

next

you’re just spinning 
your 
wheels

in your own
 private 
Levittown 

space

everything is so

safe

everyone’s
 
predictably the

same

if you could just

leave

you wouldn’t 

care about so much

pain

  1. safe and predictable is what many crazy
    and for the rest of us
    it can seem so suffocating
