i stood in an empty room
halogens glowed in pools of oil and water on the concrete
rows of chrome gleamed in silence, perfectly disciplined machines, waiting
...nothing happened.
no sound
no clocks
no people
no change
no footsteps
no breath
the silence sucks the thoughts out
pushing on my eyes
roars in the blood
screams in the tendons
reverberates in the lungs
echoing slam of eyelids
...nothing happened.
i could stand there forever
i could stand there a precious empty few seconds
no difference
no time
without sound to push it along
perfect, frozen silence
forever
