I'M Always Here To Talk; Interruption
look around.
-once lost, never found. funny there still is
hope (dope); forgive them, they want things to be right.
delightful / deranged & enraged upon birth against those
who've wronged, who've gone far yet have never settled.
[i refuse to let myself progress] command form / regress
/ redress yourself as you were meant to be / covering
all sign of difference. facing the front, as the rest of the
zombies, i could see things were a bit dismal. mass
catechismal suffering, knocking the world about in
tornadoes of groans & sighs- killing for lies.
call it whatever you want, a slight tease or an echoing
taunt that further defines the solitude you're locked in,
bashing your brains in with each reaction of nothingatall.
knowing something is inevitable does not make it any
easier, or any more okay. change is most desired, yet
movers have been fired. boxes remain throughout the
castle, ready always to go somewhere where they might
become useful, waiting & fading from view. it could have
been for you that i carved this smile into my skin, wore it
taut & thin whenever you were around. i remember you who
taught me that despite any sound i hear, look straight
ahead, fight the fear. defiance is nothing new to a state like
this, so upon the great awakening, it was easy to merely
roll back over, go back to sleep. let's hope, as they say,
that you can't feel pain in dreams.
too much; it screams.
