_This house_,                 my senile cage, my belittling chains _This house_,                 my strangling gag _This house_,                 freedom is mythical _This house_,                 tearing the littlest of my escapes _This house_,                 making me ponder my next breaths _This house_,                 where my tears are insipid _This house_,                 where my cries are inane _This house_,                 my nightmares' tender handiwork _This house_,                 where I'm the nemesis _This house_,                 my fated funeral flower _This house_,                 the gravestone of an impending exigency.
