The Fear of Loneliness

a brief moment of relaxation, alone with my thoughts in the lucky parking lot

watching the sailboat

an old memory once common

avoiding eye contact with the homeless

for fear of confrontation

ashamed of myself

thoughts bubble and fester

thoughts trapped in an orange coffin

thoughts pierced and bleeding

another brief moment of relaxation, alone with my thoughts in the lucky parking lot

Monophobia
