unsent draft messages

My hamster wheel is as big as the London Eye

Two escalators up

Then two more back down

Round and round 

On repeat

One hand cuffed to the rail

In the other, the key

Choosing to pay

For something that’s free

This is anxiety 

Done socially

Strangers assembling

So intimately

Achieving discomfort

Almost comfortablely

Standing on the right

Not doing it for me

I should tap out

Eventually 

Yeah…

Jump the barrier!

Okay no, too far

I’ll just tap out

Beeeeep 📱
