Uninspired
I crawl into Cheerio boxes and
ramen noodle cups looking
for serotonin.
But I fall through, and find myself back
in bed, little spoon to depression.
My mind’s on quarantine,
I pick at the prison until
my elbows bleed.
Sit on the couch
for eighteen hours, I named all
the dust-bunnies on the coffee table.
I eat so much I’m worried
my knees will burst.
Titled poems missing a body, I chew
on the keyboard.
Outgrown eyebrows try to
strangle me, I thank
them for being so kind.
