relapse

by Philippa Jane

we all make goals:
to rise and fall as expected
to show up on time
to breathe in and out
until one of us expires
or gets bored

this land is so barren
i can see for miles if i care
to look, though i seldom do
but i can recall the view
from a windowless room,
the smoky taste of apathy

Sounds like the world is quickly spinning out of your control. Heh. Really enjoyed this.
