"Ear Rings," My Tinnitus Has Chased Me Down

I'm awake in Seattle two nights in a row now. I've been having difficulty getting to sleep and difficulty waking up. I think I'm starting to get sick. 

My head moves like movie scenes. Every shot keeps it going. 

And I keep my tongue tightly choreographed. But my words need a better dance to do. 

And the curtain drops, and I can hardly keep my composure. 

I'll take everything I can get. My mood might be blue but I can get my lips that color too. 

The same CD has been on repeat for the past week. 

I turn it off as red light eyes dance on my spine.
