Stasis Day

i am stone

eyes unfurled

trapped open

pain leaking

all this time

may not stop

frozen in

stasis day

can it end

can I end it

you can’t

they could

they know how

you don’t though

you’re no use

stasis day

I just want to know what it was like before all that, before that monster ate that child.
