    ( inspired by a friend )

    Static, stationary, hanging in a day,
    Like clothes on a line.
    Head is a buzz,
    Eyes are wide ; but they do not see.

    Faces talking at me,
    Ears abandoned by sound,
    Lips move, but
    I see wiggles and squiggles where words should be.

    And this feeling, they say, is called Down.
    But where have i fallen from?
    Yesterday i was high,
    Now im on the floor.

    Pick me up, shake me down,
    Shake down this visage,
    Unmak me; unveil me,
    Do not derail me.

    Help me out,
    Out of this haze and into the next.
    Fallen?
    Yes, but i'm about to be swept back off my feet.
