IX.
Escapsim,
(the delicate: flower).
growing from leaves, between torn
the pages.
Displacement.
equal cause for alarm.
Can we increase, the sense
of urgency?
Before my self-
inflicted surgery?
Or, perform,
a back alley
lobotomy.
They don't need the colors, to
decorate,
shades of grey.
Paint peeling sky
lines.
Under these layers, we
still use wallpaper.
