Pressure engulfs me
like a starving, raving piranha,
eager for food, subsistence, anything.

Incredulously, nobody notices
as I fall deep



deep




deeper down into confusion.

Balancing
her wishes,
his dreams,
their expectations.. until
everything

stops.


Cascades,
falls,

crashes;


tumbling
down

around
me.

Damn piranha.
