all in this empty infested apartment.
a dull light creeps from the corner of the room and gives different shadows to everything here. it's an odd thing to be the only living thing in this room.
there's a fan that doesn't have a low setting. a television. a piano. and a couch.
this is a living room, and i'm barely alive.
this place has yet to become my home.
i eat here. i sleep here. i shower here.
consequently, i live here. but this is no home of mine.
at this hour when the sun has deserted me, i do nothing but stare.
i stare at the absence of movement and the lack of sound.
and i'm frozen here.
the clocks refuse to tick and the lovely crater-layered moon pays no attention to this lackluster room. lounging about in what might as well be a still photograph.
but i don't care for myself as i devour coffee pots and apple cores. i care..
