This Thing That Sits and Talks at You

 

This thing that sits

and talks at you –
when will it stop?

You aren’t fond of stories.
The flop and splay of facts
arrayed as if

their manufactured tactics
all intrinsically
had interest doesn’t interest.

This thing that sits

and talks at you –
its infinitely intricate specifics!

You crave to be inoculated
by the serum of the flow
of what persists below.
