cabin fever

sat down to the drumbeats of fingernails
staring blankly at the desk habitat
paperclip chasing after loose
leaves blown by climate control
sporadic half-flight, staggering
over a well-appointed bedroom

cabin fever

sat down to fingernail drum rolls
staring blandly at desk's habitat
paperclips give chase at loosened
leaves blown by climate control
sporadic demi-flight, staggering
across a well-appointed bedroom
