Mental Bogeymen

over seas
and under
eclipsed humps
of senseless
experience
mental
bogey men
hitching
programs
that taste
of bismuth
and sound
did you hear
the tablets
when they fell?
the line
took offense
yet followed
and returned

it only takes
a second
to refuse
warmth hours
old
near death
survived and
slept with,
a something mood
checked and
unexpected,
fundamental
idiocy
discussed
with the abyss
and the loser
shines neath
the inside
sky
