Torment

Falling, falling , falling
Nowhere to fall
Skidding off handsome sides
Slidding down pitiful rides
Screaming out my tears of fear and terror
The little things nag and feter with maggots of torment
I see them and quiver
Flicking away to no avail
Don’t despair
Stop thinking
Silence the mind
Internal silence.
