at table

i'm going through the movements

and losing my tastebuds

everything tastes like unsalted, cold, overcooked rice

that i'm too tired to eat

terrarium

surrounded by glass

i should be happy

at least there are air vents

awkward presentation

apostasy
  --4 syllables
unfaithful
  --3 syllables
liar
  --2 syllables
wrong
  --1 syllable

although, liar isn't exactly unfaithful, at least not all of the time
and wrong could be taken many ways

the shorter, less succinct version is that i no longer am confident of much
regarding myself
and my faith
such as it is

sunrise

when i talk to you,

afterwards, i remember

beautiful music

fireside

The old ones tell the young ones not to run

The taste of freedom eats the liver

And then you die
