blithering
blathering
i worry
the self absorption
will consume me
making me nothing
more than a figment
in their epic
delusion

it is amazing
how alone
you can feel
surrounded by
rooms full of
excited people

i don’t exist
in the lives of those
that matter
how could i matter
to a bunch
of strangers
and why does it
feel like madness
living in a
collision of the two
