When i feel lost, 
shopping malls, 
noisy book stores; eateries...
are getaways 

or i let the routine stifle, 
muffle, black out,  
hush, 
kill…

or recline on a couch
snug, yet insecure, 
lonesome, detached, 
forlorn...

or stare at a pigeon
on a sunshade, 
roaches crushed in the kitchen
a spider swept away… 

hooked to agony
as clock heels tip toe
the question:
is it enough to simply survive?
