feels like the world shifted one degree to the right, to the left and i wouldn’t have noticed
everything is perfectly normal
but not
like it is more difficult to put on the mask or maybe i want to see what it is like without
but i’m afraid
how does everyone do it so effortlessly
just walk around and not feel like everyone else sees through them
can they hear they the cracking as my heart pounds against my ribs like a bird in need of escape
the lightning that crackles from brain to eyes
can they tell no matter how similar we are we are basically different species
or is it me
i cannot see correctly with this dull ache
these dull aches
how are they walking like everything is okay, that it’s not all falling apart around them one centimeter at a time
a half of a half of a half of an inch from total chaos
it’s me
breathe
deep
in with the good
(it’s poison)
out with the bad
(i’m dying)
count to ten
not backwards
that would be too much like the countdown in my skull
smile
nod
greetings and salutations human i am one of you doing human things in my human body
don’t scream
go back inside and lay in bed and write and write and write
it’ll all be okay soon
or it won’t
everything is normal
except that it’s not
One standard thing is the surreal feeling of everything, down the the smallest detail

That’s exactly it. All is perfectly unnormally normal. I hate it.
