The beeping. What is it. No really&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
Later in conversation, randomly, interjecting&amp;#8230;.just imagine,&lt;br/&gt;
Could that be someone&amp;#8217;s life alert, like in the commercials&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
And beyond how annoying the sound for its similarity to my chosen&lt;br/&gt;
                                                                                                 Alarm sound&lt;br/&gt;
We could be annoyed and now laughing at someone&amp;#8217;s help alert&lt;br/&gt;
Unattended, and therefore death.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
&amp;#8230;.it&amp;#8217;s hard to sleep too. I wish I had earplugs.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/45251528311</link><guid>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/45251528311</guid><pubDate>Wed, 13 Mar 2013 01:36:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Running errands, the tattoos on her hands, the symbols.

Her reply, I do not know what they mean, I just liked them.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A flash back, she walked down the hallway, away from the room, hands to the wall, slowly, gently grazing her fingers against the wall, raising her arms up&amp;#8230; An accidental syncing. A non purposeful demonic ritual. The walls, her tattoos, maybe it was purposeful? It can&amp;#8217;t be undone.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A music show, radio city? My brother senses something is wrong, it&amp;#8217;s not the same.&lt;br/&gt;
The ceilings are damp, and droplets of water are dripping from the fabriced ceilings. The ground is squishy and the upper decks are a buzz. There is a nervous tension here. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No more recall, just a big&lt;br/&gt;
Boom and awaking to the sounds of thunder and a roommate whispering.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There was a dog or a pig, It could jump very high and very far, and I am pretty sure I was on its back as it travelled through the scenes of my shifting mind.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/33151176692</link><guid>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/33151176692</guid><pubDate>Mon, 08 Oct 2012 05:12:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>change i will</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/q8_3NMHfs-I" width="560"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/32794607399</link><guid>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/32794607399</guid><pubDate>Wed, 03 Oct 2012 03:38:14 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>which witch is which</title><description>&lt;p&gt;                               its the witching hour&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;

She tore at me and stomped on my head. When I approached her black body, she changed, cream colored and of no recognizable nature, a small head and now teeth. Trying to shut its mouth and throw it out the door. Always attacking my hands. The dog is not helping. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I go the the bathroom, the lighting is raising questions as to the surface tension across the mirror. Is it cracked? Or marbled with water stains?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I hear/feel/fear someone is here with me. I linger at the mirror, side to side and squinting, is it broken? I throw my hand against it, and grasping at the cracks peel the mirror. A maniacal moment of terror, I hear/feel/fear someone is getting closer. My left hand still grasping the large shards, I walk down the hallway, but the shards remain connected to the mirror as if made of some fascial tissue or rubber, yet still cutting at my hand.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I step through the door way and into the kitchen, I can feel the shadow. It comes down upon me from my left, stabbing me repeatedly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I open my eyes, a minute later my dog leaves me alone in bed. I wonder if he could sense that he didn&amp;#8217;t save me in my dream, or if I kicked him as I was being murdered.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/32399685379</link><guid>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/32399685379</guid><pubDate>Thu, 27 Sep 2012 12:57:27 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>I hope</title><description>&lt;p&gt;moving so fast&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A necessary transition&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;walking now, yet treading carefully&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I still hear your whispered lines, &amp;#8220;open your eyes&amp;#8221; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;that come hither slither from split lips; that lure and bait&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a longing note on nothingness&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;for some of us are born to endless night&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/32356376015</link><guid>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/32356376015</guid><pubDate>Wed, 26 Sep 2012 18:57:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>A cat was stealing my breath as I awoke to chase the tail of a dog</title><description>&lt;p&gt;A cat was stealing my breath as I awoke to chase the tail of a dog&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/30874103643</link><guid>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/30874103643</guid><pubDate>Tue, 04 Sep 2012 12:25:22 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>margaritas followed by mousetraps</title><description>&lt;p&gt;margaritas followed by mousetraps&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/30565904898</link><guid>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/30565904898</guid><pubDate>Thu, 30 Aug 2012 23:28:14 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>he had those dancin feet, how will we ever meet</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/PBwOqwsQ0Gc" width="560"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/29706514333</link><guid>http://monotonyofthemuse.tumblr.com/post/29706514333</guid><pubDate>Sat, 18 Aug 2012 15:37:16 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>I guess the lack of punctuation leaves it open for interpretation
