stop and stare

carve out a seat for yourself
at the last supper
life has not been lived
unless you’ve had to suffer

top off the tank and wait
my heart just sank into my stomach
i can’t digest it
you know what’s coming

raw materials in your hemispheres
don’t blink or you might miss everything
coming at you a mile a minute
from you don’t know where

stop and stare

take it all in with a grin
as if you didn’t care
