Buttons spin
On the ceiling-
You’re feeling
A plastic dizziness,
Bleached threads
Dangle their knotted strands
Into each of your ears,
Inching slowly through
The grooves of the brain
And expanding
As your thoughts sweat,
Sending sweater fuzz
Bouncing colorful
Behind bright eyes
Until lids droop
Warm and heavy.

Phrases of flattery
Stir in my mind
Until like
Necklace chains
They swirl into
A glistening knot.
