Every dawn fills in the cracks between my broken lightbulbs,
New-day promises, last night's dirty regrets and coffee cups
Settled between the bathroom mirror and the
Cockeyed buzzing of a fly against my florescent light.
Out and in, my thoughts wander and on and on
Neverending stories for that time between the
Sleeping of my mortal body and the
Cocksucking reality of the dream's end.
Every day begins the same way and I wonder if this
Delay as I look in the mirror will make any difference.

I wash my face, dissolving all traces of
Nighttime glories I might have gained

Entropy is the word of the day as I sit at my kitchen table
New reflections in my steaming coffee, and I look without seeing that I
Need you to break me of this, our
Unhealthy stream of moments,
Instigated but never fulfilled.
Another acrostic.

The way I've been feeling lately

So...remind me what an acrotic is.

But I really liked this. It sets a scene, sort of like moving through rooms. This is one room. It is whole, has niches and characteristics that make it up.
