Veg

When sinking 
lower,
and lower 
into quicksand,

the mush envelops me;
swaddling my stretched
muscles, and lifting
the weight from my soles.

In a way, 
it's so relaxing,
I'd rather grab
a remote control
than a lifeline.

  1. might need some punctuation work (i am against that semi-colon), but this is fantastic. Perfect title, and perfect ending. Pretty good linework, but maybe make it a bit more halting? "lower, and / lower into / quicksand" perhaps?

    really liked this.
