Escape Poem by Stefanie Fontker

There it is again
Hanging out of my brain
Out of the corner
Of my very mind
I cannot force it
Back into its slot
There is no longer
Any space for it
To crawl back into
For it to sleep in
It must be annihilated
Or addressed, maybe it
It may just leave
On its own, disappear
Either way I want it gone
Too many stare at me
Like they know it all
As if they have seen
What is going on here
In this void of a head
But there isn't a clue
Only a dark thought
Trying to slip its way
Out of its old home
