headache, immediate thirst for water, pain in various parts of the body, the mind catches up with where it is, what it went through. discomfort filling the physical realm as the mind begins making sense of the past 24 hours only to leave shame and regret in place. again, borrowing happiness from a perfectly adequate day. consuming too much of one thing, and paying the consequences.

too much of anything. as stuff fills each corner of your house and garage—
friends on your phone directory
events on your calendar.
money in the bank
tattoos on your arms
songs in your head
exes
tools
vacations
cavities
