10 She knelt in the hunger days of youth. Castrated, ***** and ****** up. "All in the mind," they said "don't isolate yourself from the wolves." One by one a chunk of flesh is just a piece of stolen candy. "Don't fear us," they said. "We'll keep you alive. It will be our pleasure." 20 My thoughts are written on the side of my head. Yet, they hide from you. Under the letters, your commas and clauses, your conditions. Words. They mean nothing. Yet everything is seen in them. Why. It never ends. Well. 30 It went on. This series of talks. It ails me.  The cheapness of this masquerade. The farce  is fun to watch. Happy with this comedy of silence, and the cold. Children used to play, now used for play--  like bots, or chess. If I didn't have a God, a heart, a soul, you'd be happy with your ghost in a shell. 40 The legal guy spoke as if he knew what was right. Legal is something else. What do i know. "You know nothing, John Snow." is a fine meme for one of us. I can hear the anger in your tone, the hysteria rises each time I dont go along willingly. When I was a child, I thought like a child. How convenient that was for you.
