Hi there. This happened when I pictured a hairline fracture in a car's window. Then I realized that the little scratch would get bigger every time it was strained; until it shattered.

Insanity

The smallest crack,

the faintest sound

but, Oh-

isn't that what starts it all?

The pebble to start the rocks' decent,

The intake of breath before the scream,

The fuzziness of the eye as sleep overtakes;

That is, after

all,

how insanity works,

ne?

It seems so

so

so small at first, so

so quiet

the voices so small and quiet...

until they are louder.
