Their Experiment II

Swimming in grey

Drowning in red

Nothing seems real

Just a haze,

A smear of color's

mear pictures passing by

 

Surrounded,

By nothing more then empty vessels

Nothing more then hollow souls

One after another

Dead eyes & pale skin  

 

Gaurds watch,

Eagle eyes scanning

Restraints & syringes at hand

Ready to pounce as we stand    

                                      

All in line

A shuffle to the next fix

The glazed eyes

The cool calmness                              

The deafening silence

 

Water cups passed around

2 pills in hand

Cold and dead to it all

Its all routine

Swallow, drink, repeat

 

Another day

Another dream          

Another thought                  

Lost, wasted, silenced
