mattress belongs to the floor
The Mattress That Belongs To The Floor A dusty Floor A bed that's a foot from the floor. connected from the wall two feet from the door. There's A mattress that now belongs to the floor. Before the mattress belonged to the floor. the mattress belonged to me, as I recall the room was small four blue walls, Two windows for two walls, two cages for two windows. This is not jail this was no prison, most certain this was not heaven,This is residential. Upon nine rooms, the mattresses are on the floor. nine neighbors including me were in the floor. I lay awake upon a mattress that belongs to the floor. my neighbors just kids we were, all pasts of ours are different from all. one thing in common we lay upon a mattress that belongs to the floor. After night falls I lay awake and there they were the owners of our doors. Every 240 minutes of the night they come to open the doors. As I lay there wide awake they open and say are you awake. I look at them all they see is my glowing blue eyes and my pale face. Some nights the kids would scream and cry. the owners of the door told them go to sleep go to sleep no more you have lost all rights. I was told to be there for a month. That month turned into a year.
