Return
I've watched days slipping away,
Dragged under by hungry Nessie.
Time stands paralyzed, frozen like Stonehenge—
Why am I here? Ropes hold me fast
Binding against my will.
Distraught midnight shrouds my mind;
Fleeting years wasted, clutching what I do not desire.
Shattered piggy bank forces me to wait
In a lineup of slipshod impoverished freaks
Hoping to gain survival by bargaining at the desk…
The return desk, that is.
