Rundown


I lie quiescent
in sightlessness,
like a chewing gum
stuck under a shoe.
Without a clue,
but wanting to crawl;
confused…
in blind humiliation.

FYI: This has nothing to do with my state of mind; I am still the same old mad stupid myself!

nothing can get worser than humiliation - any form of it.

Nicely expressed...

But, why such a post amongst super hilarious others?

Stand up and be counted... Become a nail under the shoe and stop not until you see blood... :-)
