Comfotably numb-without the Floyd Comfortably numb not dumb: Just mute. Riding silence instead of life. A presence atrophied. An altered mind. The kind of High that drops you low. The kind of stale that leaves you pale And weak at the knees Id cry, only tears take time and the seasons will change without waiting for my voice to saturate my face. Translucent liquid nuggets. ... noiseless as they slide off the record and onto my plate. I'd offer you a bite but we all know what happened to the hand that fed the hunger. You look at me as if i were a ghost, a spectre: The nightmare that anticipates your every move. Look in the mirror for an emulation of the degenerate debris that is, was, has become, U/us. Comfortably numb. in this miasma: This miriad of mechanical madness.
