Where am I?


Words, shuffling

Perfect ballet

Ribbons, ribbons, ribbons

Choreographed anarchy

Compressing thoughts into a tight tight ball

Until I can't tell what's what

What is what

What is what

Waves

Ribbons

This room

Not cold; not dark

Not warm; not light

Nothing

It is nothing

I am nothing

Fall into the void

Not fall; already fallen

Already?

Time none

Nothing any

Ribbons

Ribbons

Continuous tense

Where is where?

Where am I?
