Connected To the Disconnect

Grim grabs hold the spring strangling with a fervor as I grasp for another breath drugged and dragged six feet deep below Infected, I'm connected to the disconnect the treacherous and mundane a world's gone insane Astray, I wander in the wonders of an ever deciphering mind running out of time and patience Never at ease, thoughts freeze as pieces of me crack and crumble in this dismay called hell All my senses yell but I can tell nothing matters in this scheme running in a quick sand dream as the grains slip quickly by Trumpets call out under a grey sky solemnly veiled, another mother cries

I hope fiction, as most of your writes are of love, this is intense and emotional, but a great poem!
