&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;5:32 AM&lt;/b&gt;: Startled awake by &lt;a href=&quot;/title/exploding+head+syndrome&quot;&gt;exploding head syndrome&lt;/a&gt;.  I am fully dressed, sitting upright on my couch.  In one hand, an uncapped black &lt;a href=&quot;/title/felt+tip%252C+fine&quot;&gt; Sharpie&lt;/a&gt; is gently dangling from my left hand.  A de facto hoist exists in the form of my stereo's remote control, prohibiting my jacket from syphoning a pool of permanent black ink.  The pen has gone dry regardless.  It's the third I've lost this week, alone.  My spiral notebook is nowhere to be found, so I reach for the &lt;a href=&quot;/title/Moleskine&quot;&gt;Moleskine&lt;/a&gt; on my side table.  Subsequent examination reveals a faded and crudely scrawled message to no one; hence, my assumption is that the intended addressee is either God or myself to read in a fully-awakened state.  Consisting of only two words, the second of which being &quot;off,&quot; brevity will later prove apt and effective.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;5:39 AM:  &lt;/b&gt;Shuffle through my bathroom drawer for old &lt;a href=&quot;/title/Trazadone&quot;&gt;Trazadone&lt;/a&gt; prescription.  Planning to spend the day in a coma, I retrieve spare set of dark brown sheets from linen closet.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&amp;hellip;</content>

<content type="html">&lt;p&gt;Ask the dealership for an overnight test-drive. Newer black 5-series. They said &lt;a href=&quot;/title/do+they+know%253F&quot;&gt; &quot;okay&quot;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br&gt;Stop at the &lt;a href=&quot;/title/Four+Seasons&quot;&gt;Four Seasons&lt;/a&gt;; enter the sparsely populated dining room and begin playing the Kawai &lt;a href=&quot;/title/grand+piano&quot;&gt;grand piano&lt;/a&gt;.  Notice grim faces on large silver-haired men in suits &lt;a href=&quot;/title/presence&quot;&gt; entering the room&lt;/a&gt;.  They speak to one another on their headsets, although they are no more than ten feet apart.  Grim faces soon beget pleasant acceptance and jovial conversation.  An older woman draped in a black &lt;a href=&quot;/title/couture&quot;&gt;couture&lt;/a&gt; dress and a dense batch of &lt;a href=&quot;/title/rhinoplasty&quot;&gt;rhinoplasty&lt;/a&gt; reaches for her Sasquatched husband for a quick tango towards the exit; his plodding feet just trudge along and out the glass door. &lt;br&gt;Step out and up the &lt;a href=&quot;/title/1987&quot;&gt; marv&lt;/a&gt; white marble staircase with gold anodized handrail fixed-against a beveled mirror which almost &lt;a href=&quot;/title/obtrusively&quot;&gt;obtrusively&lt;/a&gt; reflects faux gas lights which beam from the numerous &lt;a href=&quot;/title/Dynasty&quot;&gt;Dynasty&lt;/a&gt; chandeliers. It's quite a tasteful array of &lt;a href=&quot;/title/mauve&quot;&gt;mauve&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;/title/teal+furniture&quot;&gt;teal furniture&lt;/a&gt; juxtaposed against &lt;a href=&quot;/title/gilt&quot;&gt;gilt&lt;/a&gt; lanterns and an atrium&amp;hellip;</content>

<content type="html">&lt;p&gt;When we &lt;a href=&quot;/title/the+reason+I+sleep&quot;&gt; speak&lt;/a&gt; to one another, &lt;a href=&quot;/title/chromium+tubes+and+copper+wire&quot;&gt; in my mind&lt;/a&gt; I take cognitive precautions not to sound like a horny, gaked-out Pat O'Brien blathering into his mistresses answering machine. Abdominal constrictions and temporal excretions pump &lt;a href=&quot;/title/heart+chakra&quot;&gt; fresh blood and serotonin&lt;/a&gt;, and my breath staggers in the aim of your &lt;a href=&quot;/title/frost&quot;&gt;frost&lt;/a&gt;-blue eyes. I watch your pupils dilate and inflame like a concerted &lt;a href=&quot;/title/seven+nines+and+tens&quot;&gt; stargazer&lt;/a&gt; when you laugh; your gaze &lt;a href=&quot;/title/purrs&quot;&gt; pierces&lt;/a&gt; with a feather-tipped suction dart.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yet my &lt;a href=&quot;/title/Head+Over+Heels&quot;&gt; mind's eye&lt;/a&gt; disallows view at the axis of desire's center. Close enough to feel your warm breath whisper secrets into my ear; all the while I am physically paralyzed in this state. Physicality is not of my choice - though I fathom &lt;a href=&quot;/title/luminescent&quot;&gt;luminescent&lt;/a&gt;, twisting souls and thundering orgasmic death-rattles. A &lt;a href=&quot;/title/free+will&quot;&gt; forced-hand&lt;/a&gt; prohibition on touch, though I'd give away my &lt;a href=&quot;/title/stained-glass&quot;&gt;stained-glass&lt;/a&gt; heart just to stroke your milky skin...&amp;hellip;</content>

&lt;p&gt;Prick caliche from your skin&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Deadbolt &lt;a href=&quot;/title/Eden&quot;&gt; garden floor&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Incidental pawn, only if &lt;a href=&quot;/title/God+Save+The+Queen&quot;&gt; inclined&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Naught by naught the &lt;a href=&quot;/title/high-fidelity%252C+first+class+traveling&quot;&gt; lessons&lt;/a&gt; taught&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;Ashy tastes marked &lt;a href=&quot;/title/Free+Parking&quot;&gt; undeclined&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finding clues which help &lt;a href=&quot;/title/you+are+a+number&quot;&gt; you&lt;/a&gt; find there might be something more&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kill yourself to stop the pain, step back&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dichotomies and &lt;a href=&quot;/title/Dirty+Work&quot;&gt; &lt;i&gt;whereto-fore's&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Off-kilter, out of atmosphere - and now to be &lt;a href=&quot;/title/junk&quot;&gt; abhorred&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Anachronistic lyceum synth vamp. Tie up and jack the &lt;a href=&quot;/title/saccharine&quot;&gt;saccharine&lt;/a&gt;, this is a night. &lt;/p&gt;

<content type="html">&lt;p&gt;I don't know how much longer I can take &lt;a href=&quot;/title/the+whole+of+one%2527s+half-life&quot;&gt; this&lt;/a&gt;.  In &quot;this,&quot; I exist in a perpetual cycle of &lt;a href=&quot;/title/What+Have+I+Done+to+Deserve+This%253F&quot;&gt; nothingness&lt;/a&gt;; an omnipotent frustration causes me to gaze into the cold black night and &lt;a href=&quot;/title/plead&quot;&gt;plead&lt;/a&gt; for no tomorrow.  In the morning I flake smears of dried salt from my eyes, having adhered to my pillowcase.  I breathlessly curse the light draping over my white bedspread, imbuing a sense of clinical asepticism before muscle-memory leads me into the bathroom &lt;a href=&quot;/title/half-unconscious&quot;&gt;half-unconscious&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Western medicine provides no assistance for my condition.  I've literally become accustomed to a state of dormancy, swallowing inordinate amounts of rage and disgust and conceding I've &lt;a href=&quot;/title/Twenty+Four+Hours&quot;&gt; no control&lt;/a&gt; over a destiny which I never fathomed to pursue.  I hold the key to my future, but exist in claustrophobic room where all doors are blocked by &lt;a href=&quot;/title/acerbic&quot;&gt;acerbic&lt;/a&gt; guards; meanwhile, once friendly and understanding faces have turned their backs in a state of&amp;hellip;</content>
