Pull the plug from reality
and recede into the blackish nightmare
that consumes you day in
and day out
take the pages and the leaves
and dog eared corners
collect them all and press them all
for the future
but we all,
don't we all die anyway?

and for the record
just to let you know
and to get it out there
your brain is slowly deteriorating
and you will always look older
every day
every single day
you will learn more
while slowly losing your ability to understand
until... eventually
all your senses disappear

but...... the real question here
is where does it go,
when your nerves no longer fire
and your eyes no longer see
while everything you ever learned
fades away
where does all that energy go?

I know
I know

Back to the earth
and it will consume you
and grow up around your feet
it will reach to the sky
and the sunlight will fuel its chemical reactions
while you decompose
below
