the house was quiet

[v_mayn]

apart from my brain was making me flinch and cry out.
its quiet all day my dad goes to work and my mum lies in bed ill
the doors stay shut and the heat stays in
whilst the flies are buzzing round my head waiting

the well finally starts to break and i allow myelf to turn away
to drink, to escape
outside the birds sit on top of the shed
everyday i see the shadow of a different one
againt the 90 degree heat
its head turns too and frow
just looking for another worm

all my worms are in the freezer
its an easy life
or so they say
i guess i dont realise what i have
but theres no deeper meaning than eating
and shitting

thats it
