The Signal

I grew weary -staring
at the ceiling
Yet I could'nt tear-
myself away.

Numbers jumbled
Evil faces mumbled
The alphabets seemed to mock
or rather- point and laugh.

I tried to close my eyes
Only to get images-more vivid
I pulled myself together
and the pressed my sticky palm against my cheek

Futile, useless creature-
The world seemed to say
Unblinking- I cried.. until
my tears lost their warmth
