you wake up
and find yourself
invisible.
your arms are gone.
your legs are
there, but you can't
see them. you go
to the mirror,
but nothing. no
mouth, no teeth,
no hair. you
can hear your voice,
hear your
footsteps down
the hall, hear
your fingers tap
against the wall,
but you are nowhere
to be found. you
go to work, sit
at your desk and
do your job, no
one seems to notice
your absence, or that
the work gets done.
you have lunch,
you take the subway
home. you throw
yourself onto
the couch.
