Numb

I'm numb. You've done that, walked over my shards, flashing your placid expression, breaking me to begin again. The fog resumes and I'm howling to the moon, the man, the cities which became the sea when you swallowed. Think to the times, so many times, and ways we drifted through this smog, too thick with the promise of deceit, so thick we've lost ourselves and settled in the dust of habit, of reason and rationale, become the very fate we ridiculed, feeling the prescription try to teach us how to feel.
