Get away:
You sneezing,
breathing,
chewing,
machine.
Coughing,
lips smacking,
and sniffing.
Your bodily function sounds scrape away chunks of my attention.
Get away.
Cause me to wrinkle my face in disgust. I know this cacophony on noise is 'normal ' and I am the strange to focus so absolutely.
Get away.
I must remind myself I am the weird when the sound of you beginning the digestive process boils my blood and turns up my hatred level of you as an alive being.
Get away.
I must evoke a voice of reason, a story of allergies, when ur sneeze erupts in the metal container we share.
So have patience with me when I close my eyes or want to die simply because I can hear you.
It is your words I crave. The distraction of ideas and thoughts higher than bodily functions. The tuts and giggles that express your emotions.
I crave human emotion.
Come here:
You shushing,
groaning,
chuckling machine.
Whistling,
Humming,
And snorting.
Your emotive sounds pull at my want to understand you.
Come here
Cause me to furrow my brow in confusion. I know the forced breath through your nose is a stifled laugh, but what has caused it?
Come here
Let me in on your sense of humour. Share with me your joy.
Come here
Or else I must evoke a voice of reason, a story of hilarity, when the chortle escapes your mouth ricocheting in the metal container we share.
Come here? Yes.
Get away?
