the moment of collapse

restructured briefly by a makeshift spine. the load has surpassed maximum weight limit. think of a wheel barrow stuffed with too much rock and coal. debris is sifting off the top, carried by the wind into your eyes and lungs. who needs a pack of cigarettes?

you haven’t been caved in yet, but parts of you have. without oxygen and light, there is no photosynthesis.

drawing short breaths, and you fall like a heap of wet towels to the ground.

critique or comment?
