living without interruption
from the daily stresses of life
and breathing
and being here

we all wake up alone
really
and when we fall asleep
we die
every single night
every single
blink
of
your
eye

is just a step closer
to oblivion
and the future
and god's plans for your sanity

while you slide
right on down
the bannister
to the woman in a white dress
with open arms
