Something's wrong


Thoughts pounding around, empty. Meaningless chatter. Those thoughts are fucked.
Head's spinning, body's spinning, going to fall sideways and hit the ground so hard everything will be dark.
Can't eat anything, it'll come back up. Revolted.
Head aches hard, twisting around.
The skull cracks and brains fall out, but you can still feel everything. Glassy eyes, closed by hands cold.
Dirt falls in around you, spilling over your rigid body.
Move your hands up, try to. Try to hold your head together, stop the pounding. Stop the shaking, rattling up around you as everything surrounding crumbles.

"Are you okay?" someone asks, placing their hand on your arm for support.
You look up, startled. Head spins, spins, SCREAMS. Swaying back and forth, the lights dim.
"Fine," you say. "I just..."

...Gotta fall over and play dead.
