dimity's room

in this room
I wrote
in this room
I laughed
in this room
I hoped the hope of others
in this room
I meant something
in this room
I paused to act
in this room
I leapt to act
in this room
I bothered

I was accused
on the landing
I was disarmed
deceived
disabled
returned to foetal

he broke me
in this room

    I don’t think I like that room then, very sorrowful

  • Thank you. You’re right that it’s a toxic room.
