The Pounding Thoughts

I lay awake at night 

and listen to the clinging thoughts 

clang! clang! 

hammers pounding away 

same intensity as yester year 

and years before that 

and the years after 

cling! clang! 

thoughts pounding away 

chipping away nothing 

just competing with the slow clock 

tik tok!

The sickening slow ebb of time 

nauseates
