you forget where it started
you don\'t know where it will end
you\'re trapped in a tunnel that simultaneously narrows and w i d e n s
your awareness narrows
while your thoughts w i d e n
until they lose all sense
one thought careens into another
snowball effect
until your mind threatens to collapse under the weight
it is all you can do to push back against it
you are the sisyphus of your own mythos, forever condemned to fighting an uphill battle with your heavy, leaden thoughts
nearly reaching the top
where you could finally release the weight
where you could finally rest
only to fall right back to the start
and begin the struggle again
