2150 hrs October 22nd 2005

In a drunken haze,

losing my sanity.

Chapters of my life,

fall out of

my eyes.

Read, memorised,

looted, plundered.

Sleepless clouds

drift out

of my sight.

The jail in my mind,

refuses release.

Situations spill out

in multiple scences.

One word at a time,

one act at a time,

Struggling

to stay alive.

This life's

been trip-wired

to explode

into smitereens

in my face.

Dreams plunge

headon,

onto solid ground,

the rocks await.

Reality takes control,

dreams sputter

into non existence.

Time to take,

another look.

Time to write,

another book.

Or just jump

off this cliff,

into eternity,

where some sanity

resides.

Won't it be fun,

to take that jump

with me?
