It's when
you start to take
metaphors literally
and words hurt.
At all costs,
avoid these phrases:
"This is killing me,"
"My arms are falling off,"
"He is a broken man."
Sounds
have moral value:
noise is evil.
Crossing the road
is a dimension
switch
(you're never sure
if you are
really home),
the TV answers
your unspoken
questions
and sleep
takes you underground
to where the demons live.
