the car sits
just outside the sliding doors
a pervasive rumble
a helicopter hovering
waves of sound
a wall of pressure
undulating
as i shiver on the couch
hairline fractures
run throughout my skull
the wind chimes
gently dance
a teasing airiness
in an oppression of white noise
my unfocus prevails in
fits of innocuous window gazing
yet the blinds remain closed
nothing to see except
a miasma of white nothingness
glimpsing at forever
yet stuck irrevocably
in the now
with an angry hive
of subsonic hornets
buzzing uncontrollably
a seething sinuous pressure
in tangentiality tinted agony
