Plastic sticks melt and drip
On this multicolor throne I sit
In the corner the TV is ablaze
As if a monument
To my self destruction
Pieces of the windows smashed
Spread across the floor
From explosions unheard
Walls coated black
Pieces of furniture mangled
Barely resembling what they once were
I rise and survey
All that I have created
Walking slowly
Carpet disintegrates beneath my feet
As I pass remaining pictures fall and crash
Walking out the front door
It all collapses behind me
Never will I return
To this reality
That I once spent endless hours and energy
To build
