just a few pictures please

unplug me now
in the corner idle
spinning wheels
turning down dead end
then one way finally stopped
just a few pictures please
nothing more
if it’s unwanted
will stay home
under stars safe
idle high can’t be good for engines
still so much to see
someone screams
daylight fades to a humid gray
don’t know where the mind goes
while all is idle
thoughts become mountains
to sit on unfriendly mirrors cracked
not broken serious when joking
idle he finds his hands again
reaching for what’s unattainable
should know by now
only fails if he doesn’t try
hands shaking
beginning again
no reason to be there
ended up there
stroke of luck
still had two years left
on the last broken glass
smashing under failure’s hands
not mine or his…
