The Noises
--
Something keeps triggering the alarm in the hallway
Like sneakers on a gym floor
Something turns and squirms over by the oven
The oven under the oven light
I turned on
Because it’s too fucking
Dark
In here
I look up every ten seconds
The oven just got quiet
The wind howls and the oven begins to listen to me
And it sounds like bombs and soldiers outside my window
I’m scared
Can you tell?
(Laughs)
The gym sneakers are squeaking again
And I’m all alone on this dining/living room floor carpet
Like I ain’t got no friends
The noises don’t stop
They go all night
Like when me and my ex used to fuck
Yea I said it
Like how my music loud …
Oh wait !!
The soldiers are marching!
They’re coming!
They slowed down…
Sssshhhhhhhhh….
I think they’re here
I just heard the sneakers again…
Are they the ones wearing the sneakers?
Oooh nooooooooo
Dese soldiers bes not have on no sneakers
Anyways it’s pitch silent again….
I look up and around….
