60 seconds of screaming
60 seconds of scrolling

A hamster wheel of doom
Powered by my own frantic thoughts
What's new, what's bad, what's bad
A scurrying rodent of ruin

How many snippets feed
The monster of anxiety which
Has its claws dug into my sides
Vowing to never leave

Seeping, dark sludges
down into my being

Stinging, smelling
of burned hair and bile
A sepsis of the mind as well as the body
How do I make it stop?

When will the battery die?
