Rubber Room

Mike Berger, Ph.D.

The world whizzes by.
People talking, but making no sense.

Rats in the warehouse eating
the grain; ugly brown things.

Icicycles drops smash the ground
shaking the foundation
with thunder.

Homemade cake frosted
with mud. It looks delicious.

Barrels of apples turning brown,
stinking like vinegar.

My world has vanished. I search
but can’t find it. The rubber room
is sterile and cold. What are the flowers?

Guilt sears my soul;
I should have ended the affair
months ago.

I miss my kids.
