Absurd ang

I woke up inside a question mark

Wearing yesterday’s socks as a hat

The mirror blinked twice and sighed

“Again? Really? That’s your face?”

The clock melted into soup

Time tasted like aluminum rain

I tried to scream but only pigeons

Came out of my mouth, politely insane

My shadow applied for another job

As someone who isn’t me

The floor asked for my autograph

Then ran away dramatically

Oh-oh-oh, the refrigerator is calling my name

Singing lullabies in microwave flames

La-la-la, I dance with invisible chairs

My thoughts have pockets full of stairs

Oh-oh-oh, don’t ask me why the moon is late

It missed the bus, it’s learning to skate

La-la-la, reality forgot its shoes

And I forgot how not to lose

The sun wears sunglasses indoors

Because it’s shy about being bright

My phone cried during lunch

It said “I miss your left side at night”

I shook hands with a comma

It promised me a longer breath

Meanwhile my coffee stared back

Like it knew too much about death

Oh-oh-oh, the refrigerator knows my fears

It hums them softly into my ears

La-la-la, I float through unpaid dreams

Nothing is solid, except the screams

Oh-oh-oh, gravity took a smoke break

Now we all just politely levitate

La-la-la, clap for the cosmic delay

The universe forgot what to say

If this song ends, don’t be alarmed

It probably just changed its mind
