attack
get off me
I yawned as a charade
get off me
air felt like ambrosia
get off me
I was dionysus
get off me
cast from godhood
get off me
I seized my yawn
get off me
breathless I fled
get off me
I entered a space of familiarity
get off me
I lay, yearning for relief
get off me
but I did not ascend
get off me
what once brought comfort, brought peril
get off me
rest akin to death
get off me
so i lay
bruh screw this—
I’m taking my inhaler
