untitled 165
we control our daily medicine
we dose ourselves
we open windows
only to jump out of
but never to look back
the storm has taken the pain away
but the storm will not last long enough

I want to search your cavities
I want to wash you free of your sins

and there he stayed
no choice of his own
voids of safety and fragments of past

I would remove my flesh
I would cut my arms off

Think less
We're conditioned into doing our best
Make money but never profit

Brass buttons
To fasten a cape made of everything false
To cloak me in feigned serenity through the night
To sing me to sleep
and turn me into someone like you
I can never stop crying although I want to rebuild my body

I am going to die
I don't know
I think I am going to die
I think I need to die

My owners taught me some new words today
Ones that won't allow me to kneel and pray
or take my medicine and pray
They let me out today
