A little behind the scene stuff: I was doing poorly in college, my girlfriend and I had just broken up, and my roomate was doing his best at being a world champion alcoholic/coke head. On top of it I was having dreams that I was going crazy - waking up sweating. I wrote this late 10/20/97 and revised it a few hours later on 10/21/97 12:18am. aahhh growing up Enjoy.


Staring blankly at my four walls
on which the shadows lay peacefully
taunting me and my empty-restless soul.
This world is not scarry to them,
but they don't know what I know.
I see you at home attached to my walls
dancing slowly and living in peace -
Shadow, your world is scarry to me.
How can you be so content
to live in this place that makes me crazy?
Maybe I just let you get to me
for you have found a place to attach yourself
and I must roam.
