The Rabbit Hole of Answers

Are you ok?

❔

Appears to be

A yes or no question

A request

Residing in the realm

Of the binary

❔

When in fact

It is an

Exponentially expanding

Tunnel system

❔

Walls

Scrawled with a

Holographic ink

Painstakingly

Distilled from the

Drowning sea of

Oily tears

Spilled over every

Needling jab

Slipped right through

The keyhole with a

Drip, drip, drip

❔

A lateral inspection

Of Tone

Intent

-isms

Respect

❔

If another

Platitude dusted King

Sitting on a

Throne of

Syntactically frozen

Tree hung smiles

Singing obfuscated phrases

Delicately encrusted

With miles of spiraling

Disdain

— I’ll scream till I bleed

❔

Coppery twang still

Tingling on my lips

Like stripped twisting

Cedar twigs

Polished to a high gloss

Shine

Pulled from the Tulgey wood

Hung on a line

❔

Buffing out the evidence of

Every endured crime

Lingering on the precipice

Reality’s truth divined

Toppling laterally

Tripping through time

❔

Never fitting

Any given description

A fact obvious from the

Rancor in every

Exasperated breath

So I lay my weary

Head on the bouncing

Fungal bed

Counting splotches

Milky as a

Moonlit sheep

Until I transition

State to state

Waking to sleep

Cognizance to ignorance

Recollection to blank slate

I still haven't gotten any word back from Vocal. I will be reversing my plans. I will keep posting, though I unfortunately can't comment because I am only $5 away from being able to draw the money out of my wallet, If I can get one more top story I will feel a lot less upset about being pointlessly shut out of this platform. Thank everyone who has been commenting on my work. You are all fabulous humans, and I have been truly enjoying your delightful words as well.
