A Minute Before Midnight

The actress screams. I sleep on the couch. They begin to cry. I hardly look up. My fingers pressing red button. They disappear completely. Darkness covers me.

Cough, cough. I still sleep on the couch. My left eyes opens. I press the button. Tyler punches him. The parking lot is empty. They fight at each other. Dog barks. Women moans. I move my head aside.

Tick, tock. I remain on the couch. Clock ticks. Silence kills. Shots from distance. I hear an ambulance. Night is docile.

Solitude is easy. The district sleeps alone. I need a remedy. You need a phone. Bedroom spills the foreground. A hurricane pass by. I still can see your eye.

I step the stairs. You sleep on the couch. Walls stumble. I trip off. You dream. I paint the sky. Night in your eye. Easy to choose. Something to lose.

Good night everyone...
