a crevice carved
deep within
cutting through
the unnecessary
hacking away
at the undesirable
pieces
of things
unneeded
unwanted
but still
there
why?
the scrambled thoughts
i've organized
have urged me
to be rid of
to toss aside
this garbage
that fills my thoughts
fills my mind
consumes my head
with
darkness
an unseen truth
yet a suffocating
existence
of what is real
this unhappiness
this unsettlement
a wavering reality
of
discontentment
and it cannot
or it will not
leave me
and so
i live my life
nodding
smiling
urging those around me
to embrace
to love
to feel utterly fulfilled
in an envelope of plastic
that cannot
be
real
but that which
is a totally acceptable
form of
life.
