New Poem Monologue at 4 AM

Monologue at 4 AM

I’m in a state far away
of mind and

Nonspatial continuum…

Infinitesimal thought patterns
I stumble

Impossibly heavy

My bedroom a mental minefield
My body a sagging load

Left with nothing

But the sound of your
Insipid snoring

The deafening silence

The blank stare
The air conditioners incessant

Screaming

Relentless siren!
I sit docile as a pregnant whore

And now these strange thresholds

Terra incognita
Sucking away my ire

Testing my mettle

The cats will not notice
They are fat from milk

And greed

I sit, unfilled, empty
Funneled out of your

Nameless ocean your

Starless sky

The clear waves rise like
Nameless projections

Jutting and fawning at

my embarrassed ignominy –
my paucity of

neurons.

In confessional poetry, I always feel as though the author is baring their soul to me personally. This one is so beautifully written...I enjoyed very much reading it and thank you for sharing it here.
