By J.M.R. Harrison
- psychotic excursions to alternate realms
- fire/flames/burning thoughts to ash
- are you STILL depressed
- supernova convulsing in night black sky
- shooting star then blank
- tar pit of trapped dreams
- tar pit of fossilized voice
- tar pit
- rapid fire AK-47 slugs to the heart
- you’re not going to do anything crazy, are you
- 350 poems about suicide
- snake that swallows years
- soft night suffocation
- screaming insomnia from childhood
- lost in lithium toxicity
- left holding the short end of a broken wishbone
- sudden clarity when the elephant gets off your chest
- how many pills DO you take
- manic fucking depression
