... and then every foot step becomes a monster.
  and 'me' the simulacrum.  it had no 
matter where the legs took my theater:
  my head-projector focused on the entities
around my case of skin.  
  I was the trapped.  The epitome of 
consumer in a strange twisted world
I once had known as home.
  and then one day everything became
digital. 

   I died.

  Reborn as the die-hard reluctant.
                   shopper || .. -->

  it is the fear i fear more than the dream
that the dream is a fear is not a fear i 
should ever dream.  i dream.  nothing more?
