i need alcohol
OCD isopropyl
not the kind you drink.
`
every time you leave
literally ceiling falls
pouring water drops.
`
someone sprays lysol
flying straight into condo
breathlessly choking.
`
don’t exaggerate
crazies running on ceiling
who said it would fall.
`
last tide ceiling fell
springing eleven fountains
toxic black nightmares.
`
`
`
“pennies from heaven”
“dark when you left me
umbrella is upside down
every time it rains”.

I’m diggin’ these…hope all is well….
thank-you sirena.hope your ouchie toe is better!
i don’t know 5 people came running up here at different times, not one knowing what the other one was doing.the last a security guard, because they apparently specialize in holes in ceilings.
i just hope i don’t have nightmares it’s raining inside and wake up because it’s raining inside , again. lol
:(. Sorry for your troubles. Sweet dreams, baby. xo p.s. Hope it’s ok that you made me chuckle with your appreciation of irony….
sure , i’m glad you can laugh.. it’s alright.this time i don’t own the condo and i know better than to buy it.
thank-you .xo
Hope you had a nice Easter! Great poem!
it was “pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty” darn good until the water .<—- larry david
i hope you had a nice easter minefield.thank-you.
I really like this poem. It sort of reminds me of Sylvia Plath’s work.
thank-you alex
I have felt this way but not able to explain it so well and so uniquely. A person’s leaving can feel a combination of depression, toxicity and like I can’t take a whole breath… very well expressed!
lol. the ceiling literally fell in. i don’t think i made that clear..there’s a hole.lights keep burning out …they don’t know where water came from, but i will leave before it happens again.
