Like in slow motion,
My eyeball tears away from my socket,
Leaving me blind,
To black and white static,
I see the reverberating of the iris,
Like I am on the outside of my body,
Looking in,
Like on fast forward,
My legs crumble and I fall,
Leaving me disabled,
Too helpless,
I see the working of my joints,
On the bitumen before me,
Where the yellow bricks can’t be followed,
Like pressing rewind,
I come back together again,
Leaving me struck dumb,
To a hallucination,
And I see all the walls stand around me,
Suffocatingly,
But holding me together like tar,
You are there to protect me,
From self-destruction.

This is trippy, like your describing a shroom experience...?
Really descriptive. Probably the one of  best I've read by you.
I'm impressed...
keep it up...

I like it, it's intense.  It has something, not rhythm, more like drive to it.  Rock on.

People like you are the reason people like me need therapy.
