Degrading

yeah I did make up the word "tigerously"

I live in my dreams, 

I am the waking dream, 

defined.

I slither down stairwells endless,

I slide under the covers and 

stay there- literally, figuratively.

Every noise is ambient and alien,

they're all scripted - especially my heartbeat.

I was always curious about insanity.

I can't hear over the 

blood roaring tigerously in my ears-

twenty four hour shifts it takes.

Nothing is beautiful and it's entirely my fault.
