the selfish alphabet.

a dark room
without dark intentions.
it is the lazy mind that dwells
inside these dark walls;
a lazy mind, uncommitted
but not unkind.
lazily i smoke,
uncaring.
the walls do not breathe,
the walls Do Not breathe!
and i may be the only living thing.
empty walls that do not breathe,
breed only empty souls
and empty souls feed alone.
lazy clouds
c l i m b b b . . .
to a ceiling that reflects only
I.
and I is the only letter that matters.
