Cold Regurgitation
“Anyone want to try to come up with an example…”
Monotone voice attacks peaceful silence
Defenseless, silence shatters
Shard pierces distant thoughts
Dragging us back
Back to a place we so desperately were striving to escape
PowerPoint too bright
His wandering failing to make up for lagging
dragging
statistical
ramblings
Exit sign not close enough
Names mispronounced
The example picks at her nails and blankly stares
“Real life examples” die as quickly as stale air pumps from vents
Clocks freeze
Unnoticed until no ticking heard
Character is crucified in cold regurgitation
Bright room
Dark blankness
How much longer?
How much longer?
