in the stretch

by Jared Fladeland

this piece is just to unwrap my brain.
it feels like barbed wire wrapped around my head
and squeezing like an orange while juicing.

let the negative thoughts out,
just another week or two
and all the stress will be gone,
at least for three weeks.

everything sounds like high definition
the crinkling of paper in the basket sounds like an earthquake:
magnitude five point seven.

but i'm all right now.
I am.
i'm all right.
