The long, thin shaft of white,
Packed up little cigarette
Slipped down from in my mouth
To splash along my stomach.
The churning waves of Diet Coke
With mashed up, pulpy beef and
Processed, saucy fruits that bloom from
Flowers made of plastic wrappers.

Alone I sit, somewhat sick
And sleepy, weekend gone
And mind away from centered,
Simply feeling, cradling this
Strange sensation, like laying
In some restless spot, some place where
Mere thoughts crawl up mountains to
Emerge from out their ether.

I think I would be sick feeling, too

fresh air in draft
spring water to quaff
a tonic away
from the routine day
