Texas

scrounging for empty worries
averting eyes from the full-handed worry
the big worry heartsore that bleeds and bleeds and bleeds

deafening blankets of please's
of tiny-lettered help's
of water pouring through the light fixtures

Greg Abbott begins painting the walls red
right over the doorknobs and the windows too
is it sticky, does it dry?
no matter, no matter

we hold hands
the worry laughs and laughs and laughs

the best one out of the three's in here. Kinda makes me think of an unbreakable loop of average actions that just keeps on repeating itself without the involved individuals noticing it- just passively accepting it in their being narrow-minded/one-dimensional instead.

yes everything is very much a time loop that repeats itself, just with different fashion and names for things :~)

Yes, indeed! Love all the similarities in sounds you created through word choice. Solid 5/5- an ode to living in a cul-the-sac of a community/society maybe? For real- this is great food for thoughts!
