2 / 30 : character building.

character building

i fall asleep
wrapped tight in the arms of poetry
warm breath pulsing at the nape
of my neck

but i eventually i wake,
rub the syntax and synonyms out of my eyes
take a look in the mirror and
what the fuck

what the fuck do you do
when you're tired of being you

this poem needs to be shot dead in its tracks
i'm tired. i'm mad. i'm done.
