I see the world like hans holbein,
hp lovecraft, vilhelm hammershoi,
edgar allen poe, ian curtis, edvard munch.

I see the world the way another human being
might see an alien society
in the distant mirror of some terrible dream.

It paralyzes me from buying in
or making choices which require data
from a tap that has run dry.

I'm at the end of my mind
now I have to try to escape inside.
The sky was nearly black today at noon.
