In sight of close calls
beat the plaster off the wall.
Claustrophobic area;
waking up to nothing.

Remember one name.
Catch the corner of the page.
Close the book and never look
back again

Crawl out from the walls;
break your fall.
Redesign the shadows
Underneath it all
we stay calm
and overprotective.

Last night I was up again till three...
watching tv.

And using both hands
draw a breath as best you can.
Catch the ring before it slips
out of reach.

Remember anything;
red wine split to shards;
Cut the corners off the project
and let me sleep

Last night I was up again till three...
watching tv.
