Trance conflicted mind trace the tick tock of a master on the wall, <br /> <br />Controlled motion of dwarf-syndrome deformed arms and pointing hands <br /> <br />Navigate the stubble that reaches from the skin stretching into a world of unknown <br /> <br />Continuance. <br /> <br />The middle of incomplete in a horizon of malcontent wasteland <br /> <br />Of lack luster and inconceivable meandering. <br /> <br />Wasteful interval of uncertainty and beef jerky boredom <br /> <br />Movie watching marathons leaping into an hour beyond skull numb meltdown. <br /> <br />T.V. screen watered eyes itching with throbbing thumbs, <br /> <br />Can't pass this level, seizing unconsciousness. <br /> <br />Dogs screaming annoyed hunger for affection, <br /> <br />Pizza aroma intoxicated tattoo glass bottle sweats misplaced porcelain ambitions. <br /> <br />Twisting ceiling fanning down hair streaming from the open window <br /> <br />Where outside a bird lands in the blue haze of morning aglow. <br /> <br />Crickets carrying their musical instruments to depths of darkened crevices <br /> <br />In the worm caked moist skin of a breathing crust. <br /> <br />The grabbling sky of silver cold heat probing <br /> <br />The chair that smothers a waist alive in slumber and no determination <br /> <br />To move from in front of a liquid plasma high definition <br /> <br />Surround sound drumming euphoria.<br /><br />Joshua Mapp<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/couch-potato/
